Collaboration with Christopher Nolan[]

Nolan began writing fiction, and soon transitioned to film, where he has worked with his brother. Nolan's short story Memento Mori was used by the elder Nolan as the basis for the critically acclaimed film Memento. Although Nolan did not share any screenwriting credit for the film or the original screenplay, the Nolan brothers shared a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Writing (Original Screenplay) because the movie was released before the story was published. In 2005, Nolan and his brother co-wrote the screenplay for The Prestige, which is based on a book by Christopher Priest. Nolan co-wrote, along with his brother, the screenplay for the 2008 film The Dark Knight. The film went on to become the most financially successful Batman movie of all time.
