It's set to be released in July 2026, which is a similar window to other Nolan films in the past, including last year's 'Oppenheimer'.

Plot details and the genre are yet to be confirmed for the movie, with is being written and helmed by Nolan for Universal Pictures.

Filming is expected to get underway early next year.

Nolan previously explained how he has constantly had to adapt as a director, and he's not actually made any of the ideas he had growing up.

In an interview with Empire magazine, he said: "As a young man, I had a list of, however many I'd worked out, 12 or 13 films... I had a lot of ideas and a lot of very specific things that I was going to do. And I look back and I haven't done any of them; they all changed.

"When you plan ahead too far in the movie business, you're not taking into account the shifting sands of culture under your feet... (Cinema) evolves. And part of your job as a filmmaker is to be open to being part of that evolution."
