Time runs out on July 17, 2020.
Memento, Dark Knight and Inception director Christopher Nolan‘s new film Tenet has been shrouded in secrecy all year, but the trailer today gives us *some idea* what to expect from it.
Starring John David Washington and Robert Pattinson, the film has been described as “an action epic revolving around international espionage, time travel, and evolution,” and indeed all of those elements are present in the still-mysterious first trailer. We’re told that Washington’s character has sacrificed himself in order to protect some secret, and the plot sees him trying to prevent something even worse than nuclear holocaust. What’s “Tenet,” you ask? It’s a secret word that will “open the right doors…some of the wrong ones too” on his mission.
What follows is time-bending, sci-fi weirdness that will force the BlacKkKlansman actor’s character to see the world in a whole new way. Check out the official trailer down below.
The cast also includes Elizabeth Debicki, Dimple Kapadia, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Clémence Poésy, Michael Caine, and Kenneth Branagh.
