I tell yah, Christopher Nolan has hit the big time as it seems he has hit that niche to where I think he could make a Veggie Tales movie and I would want to see it. Not even knowing what his upcoming film Inception is about he has me sold by already casting Leonardo DiCaprio and now Variety brings word Ellen Page, Marion Cotillard and Cillian Murphy are in talks to star in the film pretty much seals the deal.

The film, which Nolan penned, has been kept under tight wraps and no one knows what the film is about outside of the knowledge it is a contemporary sci-fi actioner set within the architecture of the mind. I am too stupid to even begin to fathom where that could lead to, but color me intrigued.

Production begins this summer for a July 16, 2010 release.

This film will mark Nolan's follow-up to The Dark Knight and if history holds up it will be the go-between feature just as The Prestige was between Batman Begins and Dark Knight. While we all expect a third Nolan-directed Batman film, nothing is set in stone and to be quite honest with you as long as he is putting together casts of this caliber I don't care if he ever makes another Batman film.

    Well my excitement for this film went from 11 out of 10 to a 12 out of 10. Now I just need better idea of the plot, a trailer and Christian Bale on set in the Batman suit and this will be my most anticipated film of 2010.

    HUGE HUGE fan of all 3 of these performers. Nolan is king right now and can do no wrong. color me excited.

    Leo DiCaprio, Ellen Page and Cillian Murphy in the same film does it for me. Three of my favorite actors ( my list is only about 200 people long now) and Nolan at the helm is gonna make for one badass movie.

    Ellen Page! Yes, she's going to be in another guaranteed great film! She was great in "Hard Candy," then she hit the big time with "Juno." Glad to see she's staying on top of things.

    BTW, I'm excited for the other actors as well. But Ellen Page the most.

    OMG OMG OMG…MArion Cotillard is the absolute best. I saw a rough draft of Public Enemies and she was amazing. Against that all male cast she jumped off the screen. I cant wait for her in NINE and this will be no different. Thank You Christopher Nolan for including this wonderful and overlooked international sensation

    Christopher Nolan is probably my favorite director working in Hollywood today. I honestly think he's the next Spielberg.

    Kudos to Nolan for wonderful casting. Cotillard and Page are great actresses, but I think Cillian Murphy is really underrated, and I am excited to see him in any movie. And please, please let there be a Batman 3.
