Apple TV+ : Dark Matter, le parfait successeur spirituel d’Inception ?

Inception 2: Is Apple TV+’s Dark Matter the Spiritual Sequel We’ve Been Waiting For?

Apple TV+ show Dark Matter could be the perfect spiritual follow-up to Christopher Nolan’s Inception, exploring similar mind-bending concepts. Dark Matter shares parallels with Inception, including characters using technology to construct their own realities through their minds. Despite inspiration from Inception, Dark Matter takes a unique approach by exploring complex quantum physics concepts in a philosophical manner.

The Non-Existence of an Inception Sequel

Christopher Nolan has never revisited Inception with a sequel, but a new Apple TV+ sci-fi show could be its perfect spiritual follow-up. While Nolan seems uninterested in revisiting the film, Dark Matter seems eerily similar to Inception and can be enjoyed by anyone who loved the mind-bending Nolan flick.

Exploring Parallels between Inception and Dark Matter

Apple TV+‘s Dark Matter has nothing to do with dream manipulation. However, like Inception, its main characters possess the technology to construct their own realities by injecting themselves with mind-altering drugs. The characters in Inception use their imaginations to design their dreamscapes by accessing the dream world through the PASIV device, while in Dark Matter, characters manifest their realities through a technology called “The Box.”

One of Dark Matter‘s main characters, Jason, also misuses the central technology to escape his reality, similar to Inception‘s Cobb. Both characters struggle to cope with loss and create dangerous consequences through their actions.

Inspiration Behind Dark Matter

Dark Matter draws inspiration from Christopher Nolan’s works, especially Inception, as confirmed by author Blake Crouch. Despite this inspiration, Crouch explores the philosophical implications of complex quantum physics concepts in his own unique way in Dark Matter.
