Christopher Nolan has solidified his status as one of the greatest directors in Hollywood history, leaving an indelible mark with a remarkable array of movies that have resonated across generations of movie lovers all over the world throughout the years. Despite his acclaimed body of work, Tenet emerged as one of his most controversial films. In fact, his Peloton instructor previously tore the film to shreds during a class and in light of this, the instructor has given an invite to Nolan in the form of a genius apology letter.
Christopher Nolan is celebrated for numerous incredible works in the realm of cinema, earning steadfast support from many casual film lovers. His Batman trilogy, The Prestige, and other notable films have contributed to his revered status in the industry.
Christopher Nolan Revealed That His Peloton Instructor Trashed One Of His Movies During Class
Christopher Nolan, despite his reputation, is not immune to criticism for his films. In an interview with Variety, Nolan expressed gratitude for film criticism and shared an amusing anecdote about his Peloton instructor criticizing one of his movies during a class.
“I’m dying & the instructor started talking about one of my films & said, ‘Did anyone see this? That’s a couple hours of my life I’ll never get back again!’”
Many people understood that the Peloton instructor was actually talking about Tenet – something that fans agreed with as well considering the fact that it remains Nolan’s most divisive film due to its convoluted plot and time travel mechanics, among other things.
Christopher Nolan’s Peloton Instructor Invited Him For A Class In A Genius Apology Letter
As per a Christopher Nolan fan page on Twitter, Peloton instructor Jenn Sherman extended an invitation to Christopher Nolan for an “insult-free” ride in her class after she previously complained about Tenet.
“Huge day for me when I come to find out that the one and only Christopher Nolan, one of the leading filmmakers of the 21st century, knows who the hell I am. I was excited… and then I read the article. Listen, it was 2020. It was a dark time.
I’m up on the platform teaching my little class and I’m running my mouth off, like I’m known to do. And I make a random comment about a movie I had seen the night before. What do you think the odds are that the director of said movie would take that ride some four years later? Yeah, that would only happen to me.”
In a light-hearted response, Sherman shared her excitement about Nolan being aware of her and recounted making a comment about one of his movies during a class. Despite not fully grasping Tenet, she mentioned enjoying Oppenheimer and welcomed Nolan to join her in the Peloton studio for a class without any insults.

”So here’s what I want to say. I may not have understood a minute of what the hell was going on in Tenet, that s— went right over my head. But I have seen Oppenheimer twice and that’s six hours of my life that I don’t ever want to give back. So Mr. Nolan, I’m inviting you to come take a ride with me in the Peloton studio. You can critique my class, we’ll have a great time. You’ll sit in the front row and I promise you, it’ll be insult-free. Let me know. Take me up on it.”
We will have to wait and see whether Christopher Nolan will end up taking Sherman’s offer and visiting her for a class again, as it is evident this time around she will not be dissing any of his films.
