THE ODYSSEY (Official Trailer) The Popcorn Junkies REACTION

The Odyssey is an upcoming epic fantasy action film written and directed by Christopher Nolan. An adaptation of Homer's ancient Greek epic the Odyssey, the film stars Matt Damon as Odysseus, the Greek king of Ithaca, and chronicles his long and perilous journey home after the Trojan War as he attempts to reunite with his wife, Penelope, portrayed by Anne Hathaway. The ensemble cast also features Tom Holland, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong'o, Zendaya, and Charlize Theron, among others. Nolan and his wife Emma Thomas are producing the film through their production company, Syncopy. Nolan began writing The Odyssey in March 2024, secured the project with Universal Pictures by October, and the film was announced in December. Casting occurred from late 2024 through early 2025, and Damon was confirmed for the lead role in February 2025. Nolan chose to depict a realistic interpretation of Greek mythology and drew inspiration from the 2017 translation of the Odyssey by British-American classicist Emily Wilson and the films of special effects artist Ray Harryhausen. Filming took place from February to August 2025 in Morocco, Greece, Italy, Scotland, Iceland, Western Sahara, and Malta, as well as at a studio soundstage in Los Angeles. With an estimated budget of $250 million, the film is the most expensive of Nolan's career and his first to be shot entirely on IMAX's 70 mm film cameras. The costume designs sparked discussions about historical inaccuracies in the lead-up to the film's release. The Odyssey is scheduled to be theatrically released in the United States by Universal Pictures on July 17, 2026.
