Tenet Is The Most Exciting Movie Of 2020

There are plenty of movies to look forward to in 2020, but the most exciting is Christopher Nolan’s Tenet. The new year has barely begun and already there’s a jam-packed slate of movies ahead of us. Whatever your taste, it seems like there will be something to look forward to. 2019 was a very busy year for blockbusters, especially those under the Disney umbrella. 2020 is a quieter movie year, yet has some surprises up its sleeve across the board.

On the comic book movie front, there’s DC’s Birds of Prey and Wonder Woman 1984, Marvel’s Eternals and Black Widow, and the Vin Diesel star vehicle Bloodshot. Disney are dropping an epic live-action remake of Mulan, James Bond returns in No Time to Die, and Pixar goes metaphysical with Soul. Warner Bros. are hoping to make a big splash with Dune, the long-awaited adaptation of Frank Herbert’s iconic sci-fi novel, but they also have another major movie on the cards that stands up as our choice for the most exciting and highly anticipated movie of 2020: Tenet.

A new Christopher Nolan movie is always a cause for celebration. The Oscar-nominee is one of the most famous directors on the planet and his reinvention of Batman with the Dark Knight trilogy helped to birth a new age of superhero cinema. With his last movie, Dunkirk, Nolan brought a freshness and urgency to the war movie that finally landed him that Academy Award nomination for Best Director after years of snubs. With Tenet, he looks set to returning to what he does best.

The cast of Tenet stars John David Washington, Robert Pattinson, Elizabeth Debicki, Kenneth Branagh, and Nolan regular Michael Caine, among others. The director has reunited with cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema and has a reported $225 million budget under his belt. So, what is the film about? The truth is that it’s not entirely clear. The trailer, while visually stunning and seriously gripping, revealed very little about Tenet’s actual plot, other than it concerns a group of secret agents who are tasked with preventing a cataclysmic disaster comparable to World War III and that time travel seems to be involved.

The enigma of Tenet is partly why it’s such an exciting prospect. Christopher Nolan may be the only director on the planet who can get a nine-figure budget from a major studio, put it into production, and release a trailer, all without ever having to tell potential audiences what to expect. The name “Christopher Nolan” is enough to sell those tickets. That in and of itself is a minor miracle in the current age of cinema, where intellectual property and branding possibilities matter above all else. That Nolan can essentially do what he wants and have said projects post-Dark Knight trilogy be original works not rooted in pre-existing material is a testament to his talent and clout in Hollywood. At a time when sequels, remakes, and franchises have totally taken over, it’s safe to say that we may need Nolan’s work more than ever.

That’s not the only reason to get excited about Tenet. That cast alone is enough to win interest, especially because it’s exciting to see John David Washington, who broke out in a big way last year with BlacKkKlansman, get a major leading role like this. Robert Pattinson continues his cinematic domination, jumping into a big-budget summer movie a whole year before he’s set to appear as our new Batman. The main hook, as always with Nolan, is his mastery over the technical craft of filmmaking and commitment to practical stunts and effects. While he’s certainly used CGI in beautiful ways, as demonstrated with Interstellar, Nolan flourishes with those moments that seem to defy logic, like the twisting hallways in Inception or those stunning tracking shots in Dunkirk. With the central hook of time travel, Tenet has plenty of opportunities for Nolan to create unique and thrilling set pieces and action scenes that stand out amid a crowded field of blockbuster cinema. The Tenet trailer’s standout moment comes with a car chase featuring one vehicle seemingly traveling backward that twists and crashes through the air as if time is twisting itself into a spiral. If he can do that in one scene, imagine what the whole movie is like.

Tenet has the potential to be the perfect mix of star power, behind and in front of the camera, technical marvels, original ideas, and sheer mystery, and we really don’t get lots of major blockbuster movies like that nowadays, especially not in a post-Marvel world. If audiences really are hungering for something new, then this could give them exactly what they want, and we couldn’t be more excited to see it. Tenet will arrive in theaters on July 17, 2020.
