Cillian Murphy says Inception “doesn’t fit into any genre”

Even though we got a teaser trailer for Inception two months ago we still know next to nothing about what the film involves. One thing we do know is that Warner Bros. has given Christopher Nolan around $200 million to create something original, which is usually unheard of unless you’re James Cameron. But then again Nolan did make them $1 billion with The Dark Knight so they’ll give him what he wants as long as he returns to complete his Batman trilogy.

Actor Cillian Murphy was in Batman Begins as Scarecrow and he appeared in The Dark Knight briefly. Nolan also signed him up for Inception and he recently spoke to MTV about the film:

“This is my third film with Chris,” Murphy said. “He showed me the whole script. It’s very very complex and amazing. I’m hugely excited for next year when it comes out.”

We’re glad that you think the script is great and everything, but how about the story? Care to share any details, Mr. Murphy?

“It’s conceptual. It doesn’t fit into any genre,” he explained. “There are elements of different types of things in it but it is all from Chris’ imagination. I’ve never read anything close to it before.”

As well as Murphy the film stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Marion Cotillard, Ellen Page, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ken Watanabe, Tom Hardy, Michael Caine and it will be released next July. I hope we don’t learn anything too revealing as it will be cool to go into a film knowing it will be amazing, but knowing nothing about it.
