I’m extremely delighted to announce the release of Christopher Nolan’s Tenet on 4 December all across cinemas in India. It has been an honour for me to be associated with this project,” Kapadia said. 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. Kapadia said the film will be best enjoyed on the big screen thanks to its visual scale and grandeur. Tenet is Nolan’s first film since his 2017 Oscar-nominated war drama Dunkirk . October saw the government give its green signal for cinemas to reopen in a new COVID-19 normal defined by rigorous dos and don’ts. Other major December Hollywood releases include Greenland (4 December)  _The Personal History of David Copperfield_ (11 December), The Croods: A New Age (23 December), and _Wonder Woman: 1984_ (25 December).
