Three Minutes Later, and We Still Have No Idea What Christopher Nolan's 'Tenet' Is About

The first full-length trailer for Christopher Nolan’s Tenent premiered tonight on … Fortnight. Thankfully, it was quickly made available for the rest of us on YouTube. Now that we have seen all two minutes and 50 seconds of it, we can finally tell you what it’s about. It’s about, uh, Denzel’s kid. And Robert Pattinson. And Elizabeth Debicki, and also the word Tenet, which definitely means something. And also something called inversion, which is reversing time, which will allow Denzek’s kid to stop Kenneth Branaugh — who is a Russian spy — from starting World War III. Got it? Do keep up.

Here’s the trailer.

Tenet is scheduled to hit theaters on July 17th, welcoming back moviegoers. Maybe. We’ll see. But it’s definitely coming to theaters at some point, because if someone tried to sell it to Netflix, Nolan would set himself on fire.
