Christopher Nolan's latest film Interstellar will clock in at a hefty 169 minutes, according to its listing on an Australian cinema's website.

The nearly three-hour film is indeed Nolan's longest to date, although not by much - the final installment of his Batman trilogy, The Dark Knight Rises, was 165 minutes long.Interstellar stars Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway in a space adventure about wormhole travel between dimensions. We don't know much about the plot yet, but Nolan has cited Star Wars, Blade Runner and 2001: A Space Odyssey as sources of inspiration.
