Shortly after introducing Christian Bale as Batman, Oppenheimer director Chris Nolan released The Prestige. You may remember the advertisements for this film playing up the rivalry between two magicians, and you may be asking: what makes this a steampunk movie, exactly? The short answer is that the magicians soon interact with Nikola Tesla, and his technology threatens to change the world as we know it.
If you like genre films, you’ll love the casting of this. For example, comic fans will love that this steampunk movie brings Christian Bale, Hugh Jackman, Michael Caine, Andy Serkis, and Scarlett Johansson into the same film. But the real casting coup was getting the unforgettable and inimitable David Bowie to bring Tesla to life in a truly stunning performance.
