JAKARTA - Last week, the Warner Bros. production house announced that 17 of its films will be released in theaters and through the streaming service HBO Max. This decision resulted in mixed responses, one of which was the director of Tenet, Christopher Nolan.

Through an interview with ET Online, Nolan considers this to be a controversy. The reason is, the production house did not tell anyone about this decision.

"This is not how you treat film actors and actors and people ... These people put a lot of things into this project. They deserve to be involved in discussions and talk about their work, "Nolan said, quoting ET Online today, Tuesday, December 8.

"In 2021, they got a lot of top directors in the world, they got a lot of big stars working on this project and it deserves to be shown in theaters," said Nolan, further.

Nolan thinks a film is made to be shown in theaters but the production house is showing it on a streaming service without consulting the director or anyone involved in filming.

Nolan's latest film, Tenet is the last tentpole film to hit theaters. The film earned $ 300 million internationally and $ 57 million in North America during the pandemic.

The 17 films that Warner Bros. will release in theaters and HBO Max include Mortal Kombat, Godzilla vs Kong, The Conjuring: Devil Made Me Do It, The Suicide Squad, Dune, and others.
