Christopher Nolan, currently filming his final installement of the Batman trilogy, The Dark Knight Rises, is on the short list to take the helm of The Twilight Zone. While The Dark Knight Rises is slated to hit theaters on July 20, 2012, Nolan could be brought in to revitalize a franchise that was last in theaters in 1983.
The interesting thing here is that Nolan tops a list that includes Michael Bay, Alfonso Cuaron, David Yates and Rupert Wyatt. While Nolan would normally be a lock, it will be interesting to see whether or not Warner Bros. follows The Twilight Zone tradition of hiring multiple directors to piece together their own stories. This took place back in 1983 as Steven Spielberg, George Miller, John Landis and Joe Dante each had a segment in the movie. It is not currently known if the modern day version of The Twilight Zone will be broken into segments or run as a standard feature length film. Something that may push Nolan to take this job would be the involvement of his Inception star, Leonardo Dicaprio, whose Appian Way production company is working on the film.
Nolan has been a breath of fresh air for the Batman franchise, reviving it after it had almost become a parody of itself. The Dark Knight Rises is currently filming in Los Angeles before heading back to New York later this fall.
The Dark Knight Rises stars Christian Bale, Anne Hathaway, Tom Hardy, Gary Oldman, Joseph-Gordon Levitt, Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman.The film will be going up against The Avengers for Summer 2012 box office supremacy.
New York movie goers can find showtimes and tickets to their local theater here and watch the films at Showcase Cinema De Lux Ridge Hill.
