Christopher Nolan Denies Anne Hathaway's Comment That He Bans Chairs From Set

Christopher Nolan is responding to Anne Hathaway‘s comments that he bans chairs from the sets of his films.

“Chris also doesn’t allow chairs. I worked with him twice. He doesn’t allow chairs, and his reasoning is, if you have chairs, people will sit, and if they’re sitting, they’re not working,” Anne said in a recent interview.

Well, Christopher‘s rep has now responded to Anne‘s statements.

“For the record, the only things banned from [Christopher Nolan's] sets are cell phones (not always successfully) and smoking (very successfully),” Christopher‘s rep said in a statement (via IndieWire). “The chairs Anne was referring to are the directors chairs clustered around the video monitor, allocated on the basis of hierarchy not physical need. Chris chooses not to use his but has never banned chairs from the set. Cast and crew can sit wherever and whenever they need and frequently do.”

There has been some more Christopher Nolan news recently amid the pandemic.
