Jonathan Nolan's obsession with Fallout 3 caused The Dark Knight Rises to be delayed

Friends who like Batman may know that the director of the "Dark Knight" series is Christopher Nolan. This famous director has many fans in China. Recently, he even won multiple Oscars for "Oppenheimer" and was awarded the title of British knight by the British royal family. But his younger brother Jonathan Nolan is not only the screenwriter of many of his movies, but also has produced many well-known works in the TV series industry, including "Person of Interest" and "Westworld", which have many fans. He recently served as the executive producer of the "Fallout" game-changing live-action TV series.

Jonathan has been vocal about his love for the series, and in a recent interview with Eurogamer, he revealed that his addiction to the game even caused the delay of The Dark Knight Rises, which he co-wrote. He said that he started playing Fallout 3 during production "as a distraction."

"I remember Chris putting me in charge of writing The Dark Knight Rises, so if that movie got delayed a little bit, Fallout 3 could have been part of the reason," he said.

In a way, this is good news: We'll never know if The Dark Knight Rises was actually delayed, as it was never publicly announced by Christopher Nolan or Warner Bros.

In the interview, Jonathan also discussed why he likes the Fallout universe. He said: "(The Fallout universe) is dark and violent, but also ironic and almost nonsensical in some places. It combines all the amazing things into one. This is a very ambitious game. I really have never experienced anything like it."

The Fallout TV series will premiere on April 11, with all eight episodes set to be released simultaneously.
