Christopher Nolan Talks About 'Batman 5'


Empire Online talked to director Christopher Nolan about Batman 5 while he promoting the DVD release of his debut film Following.

He lays to rest the rumors that were circulating about his cometment to the superhero movie.

Asked how Batman was coming along, Nolan says; 'Fantastic. I'm having the time of my life. [It's at the] very early stages, which is where it's tremendous fun. I'm getting to watch my vision of the world of Batman. To do that and get paid for it is brilliant.' So what exactly is his vision for the series? 'Er, bloody marvellous? I can't. It's absolutely, excruciatingly top secret.'

Talking later on about one of his favourite films, 2001, Nolan explains that, 'I think that if you show something incredible and take them to a different world you don't necessarily have to be telling them the clearest or most obvious story.' When the reporter says that he'll read that as Nolan's vision for Batman the director agrees. 'Absolutely. Definitely.'
