I literally canât believe what some of you are sayingâŚdo you know who Christopher Nolan IS?? he directed Inception, Interstellar, The Dark Knight, The Prestige and so many other incredible and, most importantly, box- office breaking movies
the man has credentials, experience, and skill. his casts are ALWAYS top notch. look at some of the stars of the movies I listed: Leonardo DiCaprio, Christian Bale, Matthew McConaughey, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Jessica Chastain, Anne Hathaway, Heath Ledger, Tom HardyâŚthese people are incredibly famous, and are great actors. even looking at Dunkirk, you have Tom Hardy and KENNETH BRANNAGH, one of the most respected, seasoned actors in Hollywood
Iâm telling you, as a film buff and someone who studies these things, that Christopher Nolan doesnât NEED Harryâs name to get promo for his movies. he already has credibility and literally so many of his past films are still talked about today. if anything, Harryâs name actually brings credibility of the film DOWN. this is coming from someone who loves harry; many self- righteous 30- something men who are Nolan fans are going to see Harryâs name and say âHarry Styles? that One Direction guy? WHAT is Nolan thinking?!?!â and snootily turn their noses away
but Nolan doesnât care because 1) he has enough money and knows that a lot of people will see his movie regardless, and 2) he knows Harry is a good actor. I trust Nolanâs instincts: heâs had mainly brilliant casts in the past. he likes to take risks with casting (McConaughey as the lead in Interstellar, Ledger as the Joker) and they ALWAYS pay off. stop stating that Harry was chosen on a name- only basis. itâs an insult to Nolanâs past success and skill as a director as well as Harryâs acting abilities which you have no basis to deny. just stop
