Christopher Nolan assured Ryan Coogler to use a fine cinema tool to film 'Sinners'

Los Angeles, June 28 (IANS) Hollywood actress Filmmaker Christopher Nolan, who is known for his penchant to film on Imax cameras, is looking back at how he introduced Ryan Coogler to the high-res format.

The 2x Oscar winner recently noted that he assured Coogler it “wasn’t crazy” using Imax to film his 2025 film ‘Sinners’ which earned Autumn Durald Arkapaw the Academy Award for Best Cinematography, reports ‘Deadline’.

He told The New York Times, “Ryan called me before he committed to Imax. I think Dunkirk was the first time I dragged him to a screening of an original-made film print of Imax. I love to show filmmakers the potential of the format”.

He went on, “So he called me when he was prepping, but really I think he was sort of looking for someone to tell him it wasn’t crazy to shoot his vampire film that way. I was like, no, I’d love to see that”.

As per ‘Deadline’, Nolan’s ‘The Odyssey’ has become the first film to be shot entirely with Imax cameras.
