Jonathan Nolan Explained Why His Brother, Christopher Nolan, Originally Wasn't Too Keen on Making 'The Dark Knight'
Nolan's brother, Jonathan Nolan, co-wrote the script for The Dark Knight, a sequel to 2005's Batman Begins. During a 2024 interview on Josh Horowitz's Happy Sad Confused podcast, Jonathan said that his brother was "unsure about whether he wanted to make another Batman movie" after the release of Batman Begins. Jonathan explained he believed that Christopher didn't want "to repeat himself" by making a sequel and was "very satisfied with" and "very proud of Batman Begins." He said, however, that he disagreed with his brother and had wanted to continue making films in the world of Gotham. "From my perspective, I was like, it's like we've made this sports car. It's like we've built this sports car, right? And don't you want to take it for a drive?" explained Jonathan in the 2024 interview.
He said that he felt some pressure to write a compelling draft for The Dark Knight to convince his brother, who was busy directing The Prestige (2006), that a sequel was necessary. He said that his draft was inspired by Heat (1995) and the acclaimed HBO series, The Wire. The screenwriter explained that he wanted The Dark Knight to have "this fully naturalistic world, and by the end it's a Greek Opera," which is seen in both Heat and The Wire.
According to Jonathan, Christopher was pleased with his script and "added some beautiful ideas to it." Jonathan clarified that most of his original script was untouched and appeared in the final product.
"I was actually kind of terrified at some of the things that had been left in that script because they felt a little edgy for what we knew had to be a PG-13 Batman movie, and so it was one of those sort of be careful what you wish for moments," said Jonathan, who also was Christopher's co-writer for his third Batman film, 2012's The Dark Knight Rises.
