While actor Christian Bale had earlier said that he would play Batman only if Christopher Nolan will be directing it, the filmmaker in a recent conversation confirmed that he will not be helming superhero films anymore.

While speaking with YouTuber HugoDécrypte, when asked if he would direct "another superhero movie", Nolan replied with a no. In addition to this, Nolan was also asked if he make a TV show, for which the filmmaker answered in negative as well.

It is to be noted that when Bale was asked if he would don the Batman cape once again, the actor was quoted as saying, "I had a pact with Chris Nolan. We said, ‘Hey, look. Let’s make three films, if we’re lucky enough to get to do that. And then let’s walk away. Let’s not linger too long.’ In my mind, it would be something if Chris Nolan ever said to himself, ‘You know what, I’ve got another story to tell.’ And if he wished to tell that story with me, I’d be in.”

Meanwhile, Nolan is awaiting the release of Oppenheimer, which is based on American nuclear physicist known as the father of the atomic bomb. The titular role is played by Cillian Murphy. The film also stars Emily Blunt, Matt Damon, and Robert Downey Jr., amongst others.
