The ambitious production aims to deliver a larger-than-life theatrical experience that Sir Nolan has long championed.
Story based on Homer’s legendary epic
The Odyssey is inspired by Homer‘s timeless Greek epic and follows Odysseus, played by Matt Damon, as he attempts to return home after the Trojan War. His dangerous journey takes him through a world filled with gods, mythical creatures and deadly challenges that test his courage, intelligence and determination. The film features an impressive ensemble cast including Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong’o, Charlize Theron, Jon Bernthal, Travis Scott and several other acclaimed actors.
