Christopher Nolan is known for his ambitious, large-scale films. While his upcoming adaptation of The Odyssey promises to be another spectacle, the author suggests that Nolan might find success in exploring more intimate stories.
Despite an enviable filmography that affords him the luxury of increasingly impressive projects, there is one, 22-year-old, underrated Christopher Nolan film that I would like to see the director channel more in the future. Nolan has built up his reputation as one of the best directors working today, making mostly original IPs into mega-successful blockbusters, as well as turning his hand to a major fandom with The Dark Knight trilogy.
Pull focus out, though, and Nolan's filmography is varied, with a good mixture of multiple genres, despite unifying themes. Nolan isn't pumping the brakes soon either, even after his Award-winning Oppenheimer. His next project will be a huge undertaking: an adaptation of Homer's epic poem The Odyssey, with the mythic fantasy starring a rich vein of talent including Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, Tom Holland, Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, and Lupita Nyong'o. The scale of that project should come as no surprise: the British actor has a knack for creating massive films, and this feels like a natural progression. But even as Christopher Nolan's next film sounds amazing, it's difficult to shake off the desire for something more intimate. Nolan is, after all, a master story-teller, and going smaller would be a major draw, if his earlier work is anything to go by. Chris Nolan's Movies Get Bigger With Every New Announcement Few Directors Put Together Casts Like Nolan Close It almost goes without saying that Christopher Nolan is one of the most commercially successful directors of all time, and he's earned the privilege of making whatever he likes. The very idea of an adaptation of The Odyssey would be almost unthinkable in the 21st century without his influence. In fact, it feels like every subsequent film that Nolan releases is a bigger event than the last, with The Dark Knight back in 2008 solidifying himself as a modern-day master
