The 63-year-old actor features in Tenet along with actors like John David Washington, Robert Pattinson, Elizabeth Debicki, Kenneth Branagh, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Michael Caine, Clemence Poesy, and Himesh Patel.

Nolan, along with Pattinson, Washington and Kapadia, shot some sequences of the film in Mumbai for a week in September 2019. Tenet is Nolan's first film since his 2017 Oscar-nominated war drama Dunkirk. The film saw a staggered release worldwide wherever the cinemas started to open in August.

Tenet released in theatres on August 26, 2020, wherever they were reopened. Being a much-anticipated project, it was expected to make at least more than $500 million but failed to even cross $350 million mark at the globe ticket windows, against a budget of around $200 million. Tenet cast has John David Washington as a CIA agent called the Protagonist.

The movie follows an operative of an organisation known as ‘Tenet’ on a journey to fight for the survival of the entire world. The mission unfolds in something beyond real-time as the operative uses “time inversion” technic to prevent World War III.
