Most people know Dark Knight director Christopher Nolan often collaborates on scripts with his brother, Jonathan. But apparently, they have another brother Matthew no one likes to talk about…
Matthew Francis Nolan, 40 was under investigation by Chicago Police in a $700,000 bank-fraud scheme when FBI agents here nabbed him last month in connection with a 2005 killing in Central America.
Nolan is wanted in Costa Rica in the kidnapping and murder of Florida businessman Robert C. Cohen.
Authorities said Nolan pretended he was interested in doing business in Costa Rica when the two met in a hotel. But his real mission was to recover $7million Cohen owed another Florida man.
An accomplice kidnapped Cohen and the men tried to extort the money from Cohen’s family; but when that failed, they killed Cohen, Costa Rican authorities said.
Matthew Nolan’s alleged accomplice, Douglas Mejia, has been convicted. Nolan is being held here awaiting extradition proceedings. [Chicago SunTimes]
See, this is why I’m glad I don’t have any brothers. As soon as you taste a little success they run off to South America and start killing people. I used to want a brother, but now I see that I’d much rather just have a group of cool black dudes to hang with.

Matt Nolan is gangsta.
In prison Matt’s cellmate is gonna show him a slight variation to the pencil trick.
If American authorities somehow refuse to extradite, look for him to be snatched right out of his headquarters using old CIA technology and Costa Rican smugglers.

This is why I don’t go to places like Costa Rica and Haiti and Detroit. My family wouldn’t pay a ransom either. Also, brown people.
Matt: You wanna know how I got these anal scars?
If he has any of the talent his brothers got, his alibi should kick ass.
Bros before ho’s! But not hoes, cuz burying a body is a bitch and you’ve really gotta break up the ground first. I hear.
Turns out, Robert Cohen was Leonard Cohen’s little brother. Look for a brooding song to be written about the whole incident soon.
Did he make a pencil disappear?
So, wait a sec. One brother winds up involved with extortion, kidnapping and murder; the other one winds up working in Hollywood. How the hell do you determine which one is the black sheep?
rock,paper,scissors.
@Wang -
The most gangsta one is always the black one. Sheep, i mean.
You don’t want a brother but you want a group of brothers. I fail to see your logic here.
Dude whatever you do…don’t give that guy his phone call.
There is one thing for certain…those Nolan’s sure know how to make a killing.
I don’t hang with brothers but I’ve been told I hang like brothers.
winks, grabs crotch with both hands
They call it a “reboot” of Nolan series. This one is much darker.
So then Vince, what you’re saying is that you no longer want a brother . . . but you do still want some brutha’s?
OK then.
Swi!!!!!!!
Ouch!
At least he didn’t fuck a dog.
New up, less dick-stepping (hopefully. Swi – corner).
It turns out making a pencil disappear is a lot easier than making a body disappear.
That’s him. My mother in law is his next door neighbor.
