Epic Games Will Show a Full-Length Christopher Nolan Film In Fortnite
By Nathan Fusco
Epic Games revealed a Christopher Nolan film will be screened for free in Fortnite sometime this summer. The news was shared during the premier of a Tenet trailer, which was shown in the new Party Royale mode.
Tenent is Christopher Nolan's newest mind-boggling cinema masterpiece set to release in July, and its latest trailer will debut inside of Fortnite. We've seen exclusive Star Wars footage, movie crossover game modes, and viewership-breaking concerts, all inside the universe of Fortnite.

While the news is exciting for gaming, the decision to target Fortnite's audience is a strange one. Known for having a much younger gaming audience than most games, Tenet doesn't seem to fit the clientele.
As for the movie showing, that could be a popular choice for the community. Fortnite already had a Batman crossover event, so showing one of the Nolan's Batman movies would work well. Expect Epic Games to reveal the movie choice and time frame in the next couple of weeks.
