Christopher Nolan’s new film ‘Tenet’ has come as a sigh of release for the film industry, that released in several cinemas across the globe. Warner Bros, who are producing the movie, released a behind-the-scenes featurette to further hype the film. The espionage thriller is hoping to entice audiences back to the cinema after months of closure due to the coronavirus outbreak.

“Tenet”, a clever blockbuster that slips between espionage and science fiction, is being billed as the film of the summer that operators hope will reboot the beleaguered industry.

The nine-minute featurette has scenes from the making of the film as well as interviews of the cast and crew members. The director Christopher Nolan has a penchant for real locations and effects, and the clip underlines how he avoid computer-generated imagery.

For Tenet, he blew up a Boeing 747 for a plane crash sequence. Robert Pattinson, who stars in the movie had the perfect description for Nolan’s style involving tangible sets. “A lot of these sequences, you kind of read in the script and you just think, ‘Yeah, would be cool in a movie.’ And then you get to set, and it’s like, Yeah, we got a 747 crashing into the building. That’s how we’re achieving the 747 crashing into the building. It feels very, very real, essentially cause it is real,” the actor said.

The cast includes also features John David Washington and Elizabeth Debicki, who plays a scorned woman who regains her freedom, as she did in Steve McQueen’s “Widows”.

After several postponements, the film, which ran to a $200 million (169 million euros) budget, is the first of its kind to dare a release during the pandemic.

It was shot in seven different countries and features a black hero, something that the decision-makers of the 007 franchise have yet to embrace.
