Because 2020 hasn’t been bonkers enough yet, andFortnitehas been on roll with crossovers and events, a drive-in theater movie-like event is going to take place later this summer inside of the game. Fans will seemingly be able to watch one of Christopher Nolan’s iconic films inside ofFortnite.
Yesterdaythe newestTenettrailer debuted inFortnite. The jaw-dropping trailer shows thatTenetlooks to be right in line with Nolan’s ambitious and emotionally powerful films likeInterstellarandInception. Debuting a trailer for one of the summer’s biggest blockbusters inside of a video game is different enough, but apparently an entire Nolan film is headed to theFortnitescreen, according to a Tweet by Geoff Keighley.

Nolan has supplanted himself as one of the foremost directors of his generation. His movies think outside of the box by implementing outlandish ideas in believable ways.Tenettackles reverse time travel, or inversion, with the backdrop of international espionage. With how unique his films are, perhaps its not surprising after all that Nolan would debut a trailer and have one of his films viewable inside ofFortnite.
There is no info yet as to what Nolan film could be on the way, with some confusion initially even pointing to the idea that it could beTenetitself. Because of the Coronavirus, movies likeScoob!have skipped the theater entirelyand gone straight to streaming services. But it would certainly be surprising to seeTenetreleased both in standard theaters and inside ofFortnite. So the film could be a movie likeThe Prestige, Dunkirk,or even something from Nolan’sBatmantrilogy.
Fortniteis no stranger to massive crossovers and events. The battle royale has hosted multiple lore-themed events, and just last month alive Travis Scott concert was viewable inside ofFortnite. The Travis Scott show wasn’t even the first of its kind, as a Marshmello concert kicked off these types of shows last year. Perhaps many more movies like Nolan’s are on the way.
2020 has been quite the unique year, and companies have had to alter their thought process to try to continue to stay afloat.Robert Patterson’sBatmanfilm was delayedearlier this year, for example, and Patterson is also starring in Nolan’sTenet. At this point,Tenetseems to be on track for the summer release in the theaters. But if by chance folks are still stuck at home, they may still be able to watch one of Nolan’s films inside ofFortnitein the interim.
Fortniteis available now on PC, PS4, Switch, Xbox One, and mobile devices.
