to sit on the set of a Christopher Nolan movie.

Chris chooses not to use his but has never banned chairs from the set.

Cast and crew can sit wherever and whenever they need and frequently do.

Apologies to Anne Hathaway, who we fear mightve done a lot of standing around for nothing.

He also does not allow cell phones.

Jackman: Oh, thats right.

Hathaway: Chris also doesnt allow chairs.

I worked with him twice.

I mean, he has these incredible movies in terms of scope and ambition and technical prowess and emotion.

It always arrives at the end under schedule and under budget.

I think hes onto something with the chair thing.

Sorry to Robert Pattinson on the set ofTenet: No sitting.

Sorry to John David Washington, also on the set ofTenet: No sitting.

Sorry to Harry Styles on the set ofDunkirk: The only sitting youre doing is on camera.

(Did he have to stand when his hair was cut?!)

Leonardo DiCaprio has an Oscar but probably didnt have a chair on the set ofInception!

Sorry to Michael Caine on the set of every Nolan movie ever: No sitting!

Cue Stanley Tuccisgird your loins voice: Prepare your comfiest shoes.
