Universal Pictures has unveiled the first image of Christopher Nolan's upcoming film, The Odyssey, starring Hollywood A-lister Matt Damon as Odysseus. Following the phenomenal success of 2023's Oppenheimer, Nolan's new project reimagines the classic Ancient Greek epic poem, originally penned in the 8th or 7th century BC. The film is slated for release on July 17, 2026.

The official synopsis describes The Odyssey as a mythic action epic, filmed globally using cutting-edge IMAX film technology. This marks the first time Homer's seminal saga will grace IMAX screens, promising a truly immersive cinematic experience.
The Odyssey chronicles the epic ten-year journey of Odysseus, King of Ithaca, as he strives to return home after the Trojan War. While Universal has yet to divulge further plot details, reports suggest an impressive ensemble cast is already shaping up.
Matt Damon, whose involvement was first reported, reunites with Universal following his acclaimed role in the Academy Award-winning Oppenheimer. He may be joined by a stellar lineup including Charlize Theron, Tom Holland, Zendaya, Anne Hathaway, Lupita Nyong'o, and Robert Pattinson.
