What genre would you like to see Chris Nolan do next?

Christopher Nolan took home two Oscars on Sunday night for director and producer of “Oppenheimer.” But his ultimate haul for the period drama was so much bigger.
Nolan’s final payday for the film, which traces the life of titular scientist J. Robert Oppenheimer and his role in creating the atomic bomb, is just south of $100 million, according to knowledgeable sources. That figure represents a combination of salary, backend compensation, box-office escalators and a bonus for his twin Academy Awards. A representative for the filmmaker didn’t respond to a request for comment.

Now all eyes are on what Nolan — who wrote, directed and produced “Oppenheimer” — will do next. Some say it will be a remake of the mystery-thriller “The Prisoner,” based on the 1960s TV series created by and starring Patrick McGoohan, which Nolan was attached to in 2009. But the sci-fi project vanished from Nolan’s dance card that same year, when AMC released its own “The Prisoners,” a six-part miniseries led by Jim Caviezel as the ill-fated agent Number Six alongside Ian McKellen and Ruth Wilson. Others say he will begin writing a new screenplay now that the awards season is behind him.
Warner Bros. and Universal are the two studios most likely to prevail in the race for Nolan’s services, but it would be hard for the filmmaker to walk away from the latter considering that Universal helped him pull off what Warner Bros. never could. (Nolan made several movies with Warners including the critically acclaimed “Dark Knight” trilogy.)
I'd like to see him try out a horror/psychological thriller type of film.

A slapstick comedy starring Will Ferrell and John C Reilly

Western
Came to post this.
An intense Western like 3:10 to Yuma would be amazing.

so far he's done (some of his movies might overlap in these categories):
-Psychological Thrillers/Mysteries
-Epic Sci Fi
-Sci Action/Thriller
-Organized crime/super hero
-War
-Biopic/historical drama
-Heist
I'm a sucker for psychological thrillers, who-dun-its, and heists. Since he's tackled 2 of the 3 several times, I wouldn't mind a Christopher Nolan who-dun-it. Also think it would be cool for him to tackle an alternate history epic.

Historical war drama, maybe Alexander the Great

He will head up the next chapter in the MCU

Michael Mann will never give up full creative control of his "baby" (and the film is already likely in pre-production), but imagine a Heat 2 written by Mann and directed by Nolan. Nolan is a huge fan of Heat.

Horror. Not a “psychological thriller” or A24 bullshite “elevated horror”.

You joke, but a grounded, street level MCU movie based upon the Punisher would be a great Nolan project

The Dark Knight Returns (not following the plot of the comic using Superman, just use the name and an older Bale Batman out of retirement)
Bond
