Get ready for an epic journey! Christopher Nolan's new film for Universal is taking on 'The Odyssey', a timeless tale originally penned by Homer around the 8th century BCE. This mythic action adventure will be filmed using cutting-edge IMAX technology and is set to hit theaters on July 17, 2026. The story follows Odysseus, the King of Ithaca, as he navigates treacherous seas and faces mythical creatures on his way home after the Trojan War. This isn't the first adaptation of Homer's epic poem, but Nolan's take is bound to be something special. The movie boasts a star-studded cast, including Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong’o, and Charlize Theron. Filming is expected to begin early next year, marking Nolan's second project with Universal after his successful 'Oppenheimer'. Fans of epic tales and mythical creatures should definitely mark their calendars for this blockbuster!
