Christopher Nolan has always been 'very committed to filming as much as he can in camera,' VFX supervisor Andrew Jackson says, adding that for Tenet, the director bought a retired 747 to crash into a set on location in California

"The SFX people had to put 747 brakes back on the wheels so that they could stop it," remembers Andrew Jackson, who previously worked with Christopher Nolan on 'Dunkirk.'

"We had a tow rope from the plane through the set, attached to a couple of big tow trucks. We literally dragged it in," he relates."[Special effects supervisor] Scott Fisher and the SFX people had to put 747 brakes back on the wheels so that they could stop it at the point where it needed to stop. It did go a little farther than it was meant to, but that just made it more exciting.
