Dunkirk
Directed by Christopher Nolan
Release Date: July 21
Starring Tom Hardy, Cillian Murphy, Kenneth Branagh, Harry Styles and Mark Rylance
Inception/Dark Knight trilogy director Christopher Nolan partnered with his sometimes-writing partner brother Jonathan for the 2014 space odyssey Interstellar, but he’s going it alone for Dunkirk, a stunning war movie that finds the British filmmaker pulling double duty as writer and director, and giving Irish actor Cillian Murphy his first real lead role in a blockbuster. (To be honest, we’re even more excited to see how former One Direction-er Harry Styles, who plays a fellow soldier, fares in his first proper movie.) Look out for this sombre, Spielberg-ian action epic come next year’s awards season. (Warner Bros.)
