As the movie industry gears up to re-rev its engine, Warner Bros will be firing from all cylinders with hotly anticipated blockbuster ‘Tenet.’

Directed by Christopher Nolan and headlined by John David Washington (son of Denzel Washington), the action thriller is unique in that its plot specifics are being kept under wraps.

Instead, the time-twisting spectacle is simply billed as “evolving from the world of international espionage.”

What is for certain is that there has been ample buzz around the title. Part due to Nolan’s critically acclaimed gravitas (see: ‘Inception,’ ‘Interstellar,’ ‘Batman Begins’), as well as Washington’s growing profile.

Ahead of ‘Tenet’s July 17th release, check out the trailer below…
