Nolan rehires his Catwoman for Interstellar

Anne Hathaway is nearing a deal to play the female lead in Christopher Nolan’s “Interstellar”, according to Deadline.

The film, which would reunite Hathaway with her “Dark Knight Rises” director, would unite Hathaway with Matthew McConaughey, who signed on a week ago.

“Interstellar” is a project Steven Spielberg was initially intrigued by; the “Schindler’s List” director became intrigued by Caltech physicist and relativity expert Kip S. Thorne and his scientific theory that wormholes exist and can be used for time travel, which is said to have inspired the script.

Jonah Nolan, Christopher’s brother, wrote the script.
