Three Christopher Nolan films to be shown in Fortnite

Epic Games is going to be screening three films from director Christopher Nolan in Fortnite tomorrow.

In the United States, it will be possible to watch Inception on Friday, June 26th in the game, with three showings taking place at 5am, 5pm and 8:55pm Pacific Time. Outside of the US, users can watch Batman Begins or The Prestige depending on which part of the world you are in. You can check what the schedule is for your country here.

Epic has barred people from streaming the film being shown in-game due to the obvious copyright issues.

Nolan debuted the trailer for his upcoming film Tenet in Fortnite in May, when it was also revealed that some of his films were going to be screened within the game.

This is just the latest mainstream culture crossover event that Epic has held within Fortnite. In the past, the firm has had concerts in the battle royale hit and debuted a clip from Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker in the game in December 2019.
