Who knew Christopher Nolan was a rager? The beloved auteur’s highly anticipated next film, a retelling of Homer’s The Odyssey, is still about six months away and thus shrouded in the typical Nolan veil of CIA-level secrecy. (In a recent interview<\/a>, co-star Robert Pattinson happily talked about his other projects while noting of The Odyssey, “you get assassinated if you talk about it.”) Despite a cool teaser trailer and an even cooler six-minute clip that played ahead of Avatar last month, we still don’t know much about the adaptation and where Nolan is going to take it.<\/p>\n

So imagine the nation’s collective surprise when a TV spot that teased previously unseen footage\u2014craftily placed during Sunday’s AFC championship game between the New England Patriots and the Denver Broncos, a game the majority of households are tuned into while half of the country is shut-in from a snowstorm\u2014featured none other than Houston rap A-lister Travis Scott in a speaking role. Which, what?<\/p>\n

It’s hard to tell if this is just a glorified cameo or something more significant; Scott appears to be in a scene between Jon Bernthal and Tom Holland, parts of which appear in the trailer that’s already been out. If you asked me to guess potential surprise performers in this film, I would’ve named at least 100 people before I threw out the guy who made \u201cMamacita.\u201d<\/p>\n

That’s not to hold anything against Scott, or his acting ambitions. He’s been vocal about his love of film for years; theatrical experiences have been a big part of his album rollouts, and he even had a production deal with A24<\/a> that may or may not still be in play. (Most impressively, to me at least, during a recent house tour video with Rolling Stone<\/a>, when asked which movie he’d play in the mansion’s home theater his immediate pick was Tarantino’s underrated Death Proof.) He even has a pre-existing relationship with Nolan, having provided the end credits song<\/a> for Tenet, and using his IMAX-camera filmed music video for \u201cFranchise\u201d<\/a> as a hook to lure young audiences in during post-pandemic theater wariness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Who knew Christopher Nolan was a rager?
