    At least he can't make it more confusing than Primer.

    "Interstellar" now has a date locked down. November 7, 2014. Looks like Nolan was happy with the redraft of the script he did, and will indeed direct the project.

    Interesting that Kip Thorne himself will Executive Produce since Jonah's spec script was of course based on his ideas.

    The film will depict a heroic interstellar voyage to the furthest reaches of our scientific understanding.

    I would kill for more movies with summaries like that.

    That last one is really not a surprise at this point. Not that I mind though, I like Michael Caine.

    Jessica Chastain in a Christopher Nolan movie? Hell yes.

    To his credit Nolan's a pretty logical filmmaker. Many were predicting that Inception would be some dense, difficult to understand film, but it turned out to be just a really weird take on a bank heist. Interstellar may be clever, but it'll also be straightforward.

    I would have been shocked if he wasn't going to be in it. :lol:

    Seriously, the last Nolan film to not feature Caine was Insomnia!

    I think the article where I first heard about him being Interstellar said he'd been in Nolan's last 5 or 6 movies, I can't remember for sure which.

    This is my most anticipated film of next year, followed by "X-Men: Days of Future Past" and then Darren Aronofsky's "Noah". I've been tracking this thing since Jonah Nolan wrote it as a spec script for Steven Speilberg. So the fact that Chris decided to take it as his next project and re-work the script, and now with the cast that he's added...oh man. I can't wait for next November :) I'm sure JacksonArcher is in the same boat : )

    I'm kind of wondering if Zimmer will score both this and Wally Pfster's directorial debut next year "Transcendence"?

    The release date was announced in early March. I'm not sure why Deadline is running it as a story now.

    It's a good thing we're friends on Facebook. Now you will definitely be able to follow my obsessive posts about the film's production. :devil:
