Yesterday brought news that fans of Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar can buy a ticket for unlimited screenings of the filmmaker’s cosmic adventure, and now a prequel comic tied to the film has been published online, scripted by Nolan himself.

The seven-page comic appears in the December issue of Wired (which is guest-edited by Nolan), and the comic is also available to read online now. The story serves as a prequel to the film, describing an earlier attempt at finding a new home for Earth’s inhabitants somewhere among the stars.

It’s worth noting that, while the story itself doesn’t contain any overt spoilers, it does feature a character whose presence in the film (or rather, the actor playing him) is intended to be a bit of a surprise — so fair warning to any spoiler-sensitive readers.

Illustrated by Sean Murphy (The WakePunk Rock Jesus), the story is titled “Absolute Zero.” You can read it in full at Wired.com.

This series is Netflix’s most popular comic book show now. Here’s why you should watch it
Bobby Luhnow in The Chosen One.

Netflix purchased the rights to writer Mark Millar's Millarworld imprint of comic book stories through Image Comics in 2017, but the results have been decidedly mixed so far. The live-action adaptation of Jupiter's Legacy was touted as Netflix's first big superhero franchise, but it was quickly canceled after a lot of fanfare. An anime adaptation of Supercrooks followed, and it had a much better reception. Now, Millarworld's third adaptation, The Chosen One, has arrived and it's already proven to be a sleeper hit after making the list of top 10 most popular shows on Netflix.

This series is based upon American Jesus, a comic book by Millar and Peter Gross that explored what would happen if the Messiah was reborn in the present as an ordinary boy with extraordinary gifts. Bobby Luhnow is headlining the series as Jodie, the kid who may be the second coming of Jesus Christ, with Dianna Agron as Sarah, and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever's Tenoch Huerta in a supporting role as Lemuel.

5 Cillian Murphy movies and TV shows to stream if you liked Oppenheimer
Cillian Murphy in Oppenheimer.

Few actors have had the level of success of Cillian Murphy while finding a way to remain relatively anonymous. Now that he's the sole star of Oppenheimer, though, the entirety of his career has come under a level of scrutiny that may be unfamiliar to the Irish veteran.

Murphy's Oppenheimer performance is one of the best of his long and varied career, but if you left the movie wanting to see more from the gaunt, stunning Irishman at the movie's center, you're in luck. We've pulled together five films that every fan of Oppenheimer, and of Murphy in particular, should definitely watch.
