Christopher Nolan has taken on several movie genres for his latest film Inception.

It's the first time that we have the sees the filmmaker in the director's chair since the success of The Dark Knight in the summer of 2008.

Inception sees Leonardo DiCaprios lead the cast, also starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ellen Page, Marion Cotillard and Cillian Murphy.

Nolan talked candidly to Empire about the movie saying: "Basically the film deals with levels of reality and perceptions of reality, which is something I am very interested in.

"It's an action film set in a contemporary world, but with a slight science-fiction bent to it.

"Cobb, who is the centre of things and is an expert in this particular technology that the film revolves around, has put together a team around him.

"It is very much an ensemble film, structured somewhat as a heist movie. It's an action adventure film that spans the globe..."

And Nolan wouldn't expand further on the details of the movie as the plot to Inception remains a closely guarded secret.
