The Dark Knight Rises on Magic McConaughey for Christopher Nolan's next film




     Well it looks like acclaimed director Christopher Nolan may have found the lead for his next film Interstellar.
     With a script already in place and production set to start later this year, Nolan has offered the lead role to actor Matthew McConaughey reports "Deadline."  This is a very interesting choice considering that Nolan has never worked with McConaughey before, but I trust his judgement and he obviously sees something in the actor.  I personally think McConaughey gets a bad rap because of all the horrible rom-coms he's been in.  However, McConaughey has been killing it lately with a string of hits in Magic Mike, Killer Joe, Bernie, and The Lincoln Lawyer.  He's certainly a hot commodity right now. 
     For those of you who don't know Interstellar:

"involves time travel and alternate dimensions in a story that sees a group of explorers travel through a wormhole. The script is based on scientific theories developed by a Kip Thorne, a theoretical physicist, a gravitational physicist and astrophysicist at Caltech." 

     McConaughey is not stranger no science fiction having worked on the severely underrated Contact. 
     The actor can next be seen in Martin Scorcese's The Wolf of Wall Street later this year alongside Leonardo DiCaprio. 
     Interstellar is set to release November 7,2014.
