Christopher Nolan's Inception: the first teaser trailer arrives

Simon Brew


The first taste of Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight follow-up, Inception, hits the Internet...

Published on Aug 24, 2009

Right now, Christopher Nolan's Inception is a project more covered in secrecy than James Cameron's Avatar was roughly around this time last week. But whereas the reveal of the first trailer for Avatar has been met with a mixed response online, Christopher Nolan seems to have played things a little safer with the teaser to next summer's Inception.

Starring Leonardo DiCaprio, the film is a massively expensive science-fiction thriller (Warner Bros is footing a bill of around $200m for the film, which is more than it spent on The Dark Knight!), and by the looks of this teaser at least, it's a flick that's tipping its hat in the direction of The Matrix too. There's no dialogue, some thumping music, and slanted camerawork, and it still doesn't leave you a great deal wiser as to what's what. But then, to be fair, it is only a teaser.

So what do you think? Is this a teaser that teases, or is The Wolfman the surprise winner of the best trailer of the best seven days? Leave your thoughts in the comments, and check out the teaser right here...

Inception will arrive in cinemas next July.

I am intrigued. Effects look jerky, at least in the trailer, but that's not of the slightest importance if it's a good yarn.

Good teaser, I'm officially confused and happy about it. The music's pretty good too, very Dark Knighty (yeah I said knighty.)

But the CGI sucks! And there's romance involved! And the giant blue cat people look stupid!

Amazing teaser. So many teasers nowadays are really trailers but this does indeed tease, intrigue and make me want to see more. Brilliant.

The effects do look ropey, but I'm excited to see this.
