[edit]

Founded on 27 February 2001,[5] the majority of Syncopy's productions have been distributed byWarner Bros.[6] They partnered withLegendary Pictures to produceBatman Begins (2005),The Prestige (2006),The Dark Knight (2008),Inception (2010), andThe Dark Knight Rises (2012). In 2013, Syncopy releasedZack Snyder'sMan of Steel, and in 2015, they formed a joint venture withZeitgeist Films to releaseBlu-ray editions of Zeitgeist's prestige films. The first title in their partnership wasElena (2011), from directorAndrey Zvyagintsev.[7] Later on, the production company produced the science fiction filmInterstellar (2014), the documentary shortQuay (2015), the war filmDunkirk (2017), and the spy filmTenet (2020), all directed by Christopher Nolan.[8]

Other than Nolan and Thomas, the company employs only two people. In a 2018 interview forVanity Fair, Thomas said, "We're not empire builders, we're about the individual film."[9][10] In October 2021, it was announced that Nolan's next film, titledOppenheimer, would be shot inIMAX and65mm film. It was released on 21 July 2023. The film starsCillian Murphy in the title role, withHoyte van Hoytema,Jennifer Lame, andLudwig Göransson all returning in their respective technical roles.[11] This is Nolan's first film distributed byUniversal Pictures[12] and his first Best Picture and Best Director Oscar win at the96th Academy Awards.[13]
