Matt Damon joins Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar

Matt Damon is a late addition to the cast of Christopher Nolan’s currently-shooting sci-fi blockbuster Interstellar, Variety reports.

As the film started production in early August, we assume Damon to be taking on a relatively small role.

He joins an already epic cast containing Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Casey Affleck, Topher Grace, Wes Bentley, Ellen Burstyn and – seeing as no Nolan film would be complete without him – Michael Caine.

All we know of the super secretive film is that it contains time travel, wormhole theory, and possibly alternate dimensions.

Nolan is also shooting several parts of the film with IMAX cameras.

Will this mindbending sci-fi epic impressive audiences as much as his prior Inception? We’ll find out when it hits cinemas November 2014.
