Lupita Nyong’o is strapping on her Oscar for the next Christopher Nolan movie extravaganza! Yep, the legendary director is back, doing what he does best—writing, directing, and confusing audiences everywhere—this time with a shiny new project for Universal Pictures, set to mystify fans on July 17, 2026.
Apparently, this casting couch has a velvet rope, because only the elite of the elite are allowed in. Lupita is now the third Oscar winner to snag a role, and let’s just say THR basically fainted. She’s joining fellow Oscar-hoarders Matt Damon (Mr. “How do you like them apples?”) and Anne Hathaway (who’s probably already sewing together a chic interstellar jumpsuit), alongside Hollywood’s hottest couple, Zendaya and Tom Holland, a.k.a. “Spider-Love in Real Life.”
As for the plot? Forget it—it’s Nolan, so we might as well be guessing what’s in the briefcase from Pulp Fiction. Rumor has it this project will start filming in 2025, but knowing Nolan, the film could involve time-traveling alpacas or a parallel universe where humans communicate through expressive mime. Whatever it is, the countdown has begun!
