As a lifelong cinema enthusiast and a devout admirer of Christopher Nolan’s cinematic masterpieces, this news has sent me into a whirlwind of excitement! The prospect of witnessing Nolan’s interpretation of Homer’s epic poem, ‘The Odyssey’, on the grand IMAX screens is nothing short of breathtaking.
As a gaming enthusiast, I can’t help but feel a thrill running down my spine as I share this exciting news: I’ve just learned that Universal Pictures has given the green light to Christopher Nolan’s upcoming movie, which will be an epic retelling of Homer’s timeless tale, The Odyssey. Can’t wait to see how he brings this ancient Greek saga to life on the big screen!
The studio took to X to reveal that the upcoming project “is a mythic action epic shot across the world using brand new IMAX film technology.” They continued, “The film brings Homer’s foundational saga to IMAX film screens for the first time and opens in theaters everywhere on July 17, 2026.”
Nolan’s movie adaptation of “The Odyssey” boasts a high-profile cast, which at present includes Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Zendaya, Lupita Nyong’o, Robert Pattinson, and Charlize Theron. The production is slated to commence around the first half of 2025, with Nolan penning the script and co-producing alongside Emma Thomas.
In the 8th or 7th century BC, the epic tale known as The Odyssey was created, recounting the adventures of the legendary Greek hero, Odysseus. After being absent for ten years, fighting in the Trojan War, he embarks on a journey to return home to Ithaca. However, his homecoming from Troy stretches over another decade and proves to be quite challenging.
Stay tuned for more details. Nolan’s new film premieres July 17, 2026.
