Academy Award-winning actress Charlize Theron has been confirmed as the newest member of the highly anticipated cast for Christopher Nolan’s next film. The movie, set to release on July 17, 2026, already features an impressive lineup of stars including Matt Damon, Zendaya, Tom Holland, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong’o, and Anne Hathaway. Details about the film's storyline are still tightly under wraps.

Christopher Nolan, who wrote the script, will be directing the film. He is also producing it alongside his longtime partner and wife, Emma Thomas, under their Syncopy production label. Sources suggest that Damon, Holland, Hathaway, and Pattinson will play the main characters, while Zendaya and Nyong’o are set for significant supporting roles.

Universal has not yet commented on the recent addition of Charlize Theron to the cast. The film is expected to have a major IMAX release, aligning with previous mid-July launches of Nolan’s work, including the Oscar-winning "Oppenheimer."

Currently, there are no confirmed details about the plot, and reports regarding the movie's storyline have been deemed inaccurate. Production is expected to kick off in early 2025. Known for blending familiar faces with fresh talent, Nolan's decision to bring in Theron marks her first collaboration with the acclaimed director.

Meanwhile, Charlize Theron is gearing up to start filming the survival thriller Apex for Netflix, where she will star opposite Taron Egerton.
