Christopher Nolan is reportedly reuniting with Warner Bros. for a theatrical re-release of his time-hopping 2020 sci-fi movie ‘Tenet’.
As per sources, Christopher Nolan has reunited with Warner Bros for a “Tenet” re-release, the 2020 film will open on Friday, February 23, and play for one week leading up to the March 1 release of Dune: Part Two.
“Tenet” was released at the height of the pandemic on September 3, 2020, in fact, it was the first big blockbuster to open during the pandemic era. It managed to gross $365 million worldwide, but it took in a measly $58 million at the domestic box office.
This also seems to be an olive branch opportunity for Warner Bros. to repair its relationship with Nolan, which, according to Sneider is of the utmost priority to David Zaslav. It remains to be seen whether Nolan has committed to making his next film for the studio, but they are now back in business.
The film was the most divisive film of Nolan’s career, but has gained a cult following since its release. There’s also a large subreddit, with over 40k subscribers, dedicated to unlocking the film’s mysteries.
