“We used to look up at the sky and wonder at our place in the stars. Now we just look down and worry about our place in the dirt.”
The best of Nolan by far. And Hans Zimmer, too.

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Someone once asked me, "Why I like the movie, Interstellar?" I said , "I don't know; maybe because
of Christopher Nolan."
Is it not true that we look up in the stars and wonder about our place in it, but sometimes we look down in the dust and worry about place in it. Interstellar is that journey, which takes us from the deepest depth of disenchantment to highest heights of hysteria, from the morbid manure to rivet rise and from the earth to the interstellar, but who will make this unknown journey to save the humanity rather than themselves; indeed some wise people who will choose the darkness over light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Somebody once asked me, "Why is interstellar so engaging?" I said, "Because it has great visual effects, astounding scenes."
Interstellar, is indeed stimulating, but the beauty and the brutality of story is that it does deliver is self easily; it takes time to digest the story because it is vividly dealing will the facts of science that are highly absorbing, and equally paradoxical, like the anomaly of gravity, black holes, wormholes, theory of relativity, fourth and fifth dimensions, the Singularities and Quantum Gravity. The stronger these words seem in pronunciation the harder they are in understanding. However, it was bit disenchanting to see that, Christopher Nolan used the hackneyed notion of hibernation sleep, but even that notion played its part, when Romilly waited for year for his friends to return with out going to sleep. Apart from all the leading character, Romilly was my favorite, because his character unfolded a life of a scientist who was more curious than afraid to go on this journey. He was not in seek of becoming a good men, but in his end, he did became one.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Somebody once asked me, "Do you fully understand the movie, Interstellar?" I said, "No, I don't, but
that is the most brilliant thing about this movie; you just cant stop thinking about this movie"
Is spite of my profound influence about, Interstellar, I must admit that there where some crux where I felt that I did not understand the story; or perhaps, I did not understand the nature of the character. Character like Professor Brand who first sent lured Cooper to lay his life and promised that he will solve the equation, but soon we realized that he never interned to save the earth, he was merely saving humans race. The wise men he sent to another planet never found any suitable planet; he could had been much honest. Other then, Professor Brand, there was another character who seemed very odd, and he was indeed a villain of the story, Dr.Mann. He influenced other people to die, but he was himself not prepared to die. That was odd. I thought judged about his character, but actually he elaborated himself in his own words, "Dont try to judge me Cooper, you where not tested the way I was." He was indeed a wild men.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Somebody once asked me (to) "Shut up! and stop thinking about, Interstellar", But I could not.
Once you have seen, Interstellar, there are two result that can be encountered; one you will be unable to comprehend the actual message of the movie, or you will be thinking...and trust me that is the greatest part of the movie. The most enigmatic part where, Nolan urges us to
think is where Cooper enters the Black hole, which seem like he is near to death, but we don't realize that it is just a new beginning.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Someone once asked me, "Why I like the movie, Interstellar?" I said, "I like the movie because
it deserved to be liked.
Over and above if you don't like or understand all the sci-fi in this film, you will find the a very beautiful relationship of a father, and a daughter, which brings tears in our eye, but a brief smile on our lips.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.

not me about to cry in the club reading this!!!!

I admit that upon my first viewing of Interstellar, I felt very ambivalent of my opinion. Loved some parts, hated others. But after two more views, one of which in IMAX, I fell in loved with it, as each time I saw it I discovered more and more.
Some people heavily critique the Nolan brothers' scripts, citing unrealistic and cheesy dialogue, heavy exposition, and numerous plot holes. Naturally, the same applied to this script. I will freely admit though that even if you take away the amazing visuals and dynamic score of the film, the screenplay itself is just as thrilling.
Reading this, I realized just how tight of a screenplay this actually is. No word is wasted, as each line has tremendous importance to either character, development, plot, or science, and with no repetition. The Nolan brothers expertly weave in the themes without overtly spelling them out (there also are far more here than most people have seemed to address). And it was just as emotional as the film, as I found myself tearing up at scenes that got me when seeing the film (a testament to some really well-executed scenes). The dialogue, while not exactly snappy or eloquent, feels incredibly textured, something you can dive into, pick apart, and tie together across pages. Now on top of that, you have a killer story that remains thrilling and whose science adds majesty and wonder instead of unneeded confusion.
Now this was a work in progress, so there are a few lines that didn't make it into the film as well as some great lines that were added after the completed screenplay. But it still stands as a masterwork of science fiction.
On top of the great screenplay, this edition includes over 210 pages the consists of three lengthy storyboards. It is interesting to see how some parts were originally conceived and just makes you realize that the visualization of this great story adds so many more dimensions.
If you love the movie, read this. It will make you love it even more. And if you were frustrated with the film, then I highly recommend you read this. I feel like it creates a new appreciation for the thrilling complexity and interconnected themes that make this one of the Nolans' best.

Great story and easily one of my favorite films of all time.

August 17, 2025My first screenplay, so I don't think it's fair to give this a rating.
I enjoyed it, but I love Interstellar for its direction and visual presentation, not its script. For a story about the persistence of love, I've always found that Interstellar doesn't spent enough time on its characters and their relationships. The sci-fi concepts are super creative and well-integrated into the story, but I feel like the emotional core of said story could have been stronger.
As I said, I can't judge this as a screenplay, because I simply don't have enough experience with them. I will say that I don't think this was the best choice as first screenplay. The constant time jumps made this a kind of disorienting experience, even when I already knew the story.

January 7, 2026The script is so good. Gabriel Hardman's pencil sketches are insanely impressive as well.
December 18, 2017
"If you look at Close Encounters or E.T., or whatever — stuff where you go 'Okay, these things are going to happen. What if it happened now? Or what if we could see it happening now? What if we knew it?' And I just thought that original concept you had that the Earth is the nest and you leave the nest — I'd never seen that presented as positive. I'd never seen that presented as a simple, evolutionary sort of inevitability."
That's what makes Interstellar so compelling. A speculative fiction adventure tale that explores the untouched, positive side of discovering what's beyond what we know and examines the what ifs, in consideration to time and space, and how that shapes the relationships and interactions with loved ones and the rest of the world.
I was blown away by the ideas and theories presented in the interview and screenplay. It continued to have my mind racing hours after I put the book down.

I recommend for fans of the movie to see the script.
Interstellar definitely isn't meant for text and you can tell. Hopefully Interstellar: The Official Movie Novelization will be better on that front.
The script was pretty close to the actual movie. Cool to see the minor changes to dialogue and action.
Also cool to see some cut lines and some description that describe what characters are thinking.
This still managed to make me cry but maybe that's because I've watched interstellar 8 times.

Another great supporting text for Nolan's films. I found the script clearer than my first viewing when it came out. You can really feel the Kubrick influence in both script and storyboards. Especially the storyboards. Really interesting to see all the notations he makes around the drawn panels, how much of the film exists there and not in the action panels of his script.

It's like imagining your own version of Interstellar movie in own mind.
Was as interesting and attention grabbing as the movie!
When reading you get to expand on concepts in your mind.

An interesting inside look, into Chris Nolan's work, in development and how it compares, to other work. Most old storyboard titles are out of circulation, which makes this a bit difficult. The evolution however, is interesting to study. The extreme's are the pure CGI/Anime forms, where there is a lot more motion. Newtonian mechanics, and time evolution, means on an old set, things need to be reset, which can be difficult, and or expensive.

Reading the script while immersing myself in the movie’s soundtrack was an incredible experience. I could picture each scene playing out in my mind. Since Interstellar is my all-time favorite movie, I found the script absolutely captivating. Kudos to the Nolan brothers and Kip Thorne!

It takes a great mind to view this script even before filming it. Only the Nolans could do something excellent as this. And the drawing board, Heaven!

An amazing story, and very well written. Epic in scale, yet intensely personal.
~
There are some slight differences between the movie and this screenplay. But the changes ultimately made the movie better.
~
That said, there are bits of nerrative description (which are impossible to include in the movie) which really make this book great and add to the story in amazing ways.
~
Another thing to love about this book, is that over half of it is story boards. And a good chunk of what's left is an interview with Johnathan and Christopher Nolan. Which is pretty awesome.

Super happy to finally own my own copy of of this book!

Love this movie. The introductory interview with Christopher and Jonathan Nolan offers some great insight into the movie. The content of the screenplay is wonderful and it's great to see the screenplay format for a movie that you love in execution, especially if you're interested in trying to be a writer. The assorted storyboards, largely from some of the last scenes of the movie, are also pretty interesting to see.

Interesting read for fans of the film. It was cool so see some of the differences from the final film.

I was disappointed by this script, which is essentially a transcript of the movie. I was hoping to find more insight into the Nolan's vision for the movie.
