Epic Games Will Air Three Christopher Nolan Movies in 'Fortnite' Party Royale

Movie time is happening on the Party Royale island in “Fortnite.”

Three movies from acclaimed film director Christopher Nolan will soon be watchable according to Epic Games. The three Nolan blockbusters are “Batman Begins,” “The Prestige,” and “Inception.” Movie availability, however, will depend on the region, notes Pocket-lint.

“Batman Begins” was released in 2005 and began not just Nolan’s trilogy of Batman films, it also started the current wave of superhero motion pictures that were adapted from comics. Christian Bale stars as the titular Batman, returning to Gotham City years after his parents’ murder to try and save it from plunging into chaos.

Released in 2006, “The Prestige” starred Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman as dueling magicians Alfred Borden and Robert Angier in 19^th century London. With each of them trying to create the best stage illusion, lines are crossed, relationships are destroyed, and morality comes into question.

With 2010’s “Inception,” Nolan delved more into sci-fi action as Leonardo DiCaprio starred as professional thief Dom Cobb. Cobb and his crew specialize in stealing information from people by infiltrating their dreams. Also starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ellen Page, Tom Hardy, and Ken Watanabe, the ending of “Inception” was open-ended and led to lengthy conversations months after its release.

Party Royale debuted in April as a social area that is distinct from the main battle royale island. Since its debut, the venue has also served virtual music for Diplo, Deadmau5, Travis Scott, as well as other concerts. With over 350 million players and counting, “Fortnite” is a viable venue for both musical artists and filmmakers to touch base with prospective audiences.

To watch movies inside the Party Royale island theater, Pocket-lint says that a player just needs to load up their game, enter the Party Royale mode alone, with friends, or even with strangers, and head to the big screen on the west side of the island.

Nolan’s next feature film, “Tenet” starring John David Washington, has been delayed due to the global pandemic. However, it was recently announced that “Tenet” will push through with a late July 2020 release date.

“Batman Begins,” “The Prestige,” and “Inception” will premiere on the “Fortnite” Party Royale island theater on June 26.
