Christopher Nolan's New Project is Called Intersteller

Christopher Nolan has picked his next project.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, The Dark Knight Rises director is in talks to direct and produce sci fi flick 'Intersteller' for Paramount and Warner Brothers.The screenplay, written by his regular collaborator and brother Jonathan Nolan, sees a group of explorers travel through a wormhole. Heavily focused on "time travel and alternative dimensions", the story is apparently based on theories by theoretical physicist and gravitational physicist Kip Thorne.

The Reporter states that the ongoing discussions with Nolan have been lengthy and "very complex." If negotiations are successful, Intersteller will be made for Paramount and Warner Bros, where Nolan's Syncopy banner is based.

Steven Spielberg was allegedly attached to direct at one point, although Intersteller seems far more suited to the Nolans, who have proven they can handle intricate narratives with their mindbenders Memento and The Prestige.
