Charlize Theron Joins Cast of Christopher Nolan’s Next Movie

The cast of Christopher Nolan‘s next movie grows larger, with Variety reporting that Charlize Theron is set to star in the highly anticipated next project from the Oppenheimer director.

Theron joins an ensemble cast that already features some of Hollywood’s biggest names in the as-of-now mysterious movie. Previously, it was announced that Robert Pattinson, Matt Damon, Tom Holland, and Anne Hathaway would all also star in the upcoming project, which remains shrouded in mystery.

Theron is a legend in the world of Hollywood, having risen to superstardom in the 1990s. Throughout her career, she’s starred in several high-profile projects, including The Italian Job, The Devil’s Advocate, Monster, Atomic Blonde, Mad Max: Fury Road, and more. Next up for her will be The Old Guard 2, a sequel to the 2020 action movie that she also starred in.

What do we know about Christopher Nolan’s next movie?

Early reports suggest that Pattinson, Damon, Holland, and Hathaway will make up “the core leads” of the movie. Lupita Nyong’o and Zendaya, both of whom were recently reported to be in the project, will also have supporting roles in some degree.

Nolan’s next, still untitled picture will release in the United States theaters on July 17, 2026, from Universal Pictures.

While Nolan hasn’t commented on what his next movie may be about, the latest prominent theory suggests it may involve aerial helicopter cops, one of whom is older and one of whom is younger. It has also been reported that Nolan’s movie will utilize a never-before-used IMAX technology.
