Nolan screened three classic films for The Odyssey cast before shooting

Christopher Nolan Recalls Building Fully Practical Tom Holland For ‘The Odyssey’ https://theonion.com/christopher-nolan-recalls-building-fully-practical-tom-holland-for-the-odyssey/

Tom Holland jokes about getting the call from Christopher Nolan to star in ‘THE ODYSSEY’: “Honestly, I thought he was supposed to call Timothée Chalamet.”

THE ODYSSEY: Top tier Nolan. An epic, unforgettable experience. Somehow manages to wring a story that’s fresh and relevant from a text that’s thousands of years old. The cast is uniformly excellent but my favorite is Robert Pattinson, who will test your limits for how much you can hate a character.

To contrast George Lucas' views on AI, Christopher Nolan, an actually relevant filmmaker - in that he has made films in the last 20 years - is as against it as you would expect. And I think he knows a thing or two. variety.com/2026/film/ne...

Saw The Odyssey last night and I’m massively disappointed with the liberties Christopher Nolan took with the subject matter. Absolutely *nothing* on the 1970s New York disco scene. Where was “use it up” or “going back to my roots” on the soundtrack? And Matt Damon made a *terrible* Bill McEachern.

If I’m talking about The Odyssey and a friend says “No spoilers!” I am going to say “It’s been 3,000 years. Too soon?” That’s really all I have to look forward to in the coming weeks.

Outraged at the ways Nolan has vandalised The Odyssey: - characters speaking English instead of ancient Greek - depictions of monsters that are not even real - use of film cameras, which historians increasingly agree would not have existed at the time - worst of all, he's changed Journathan's name

Watching The Odyssey through a thin slit in my homemade Agamemnon helmet, just like Nolan intended.

Tell me, Muse, of the man of many ways. My Odyssey interview with Sir Christopher Nolan is on tonight's BBC Front Row. 715pm R4 or link after www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

the best part of nolan making an odyssey movie is people talking about how cool the odyssey is. the best thing i was ever assigned to read in high school tbh

Apocryphal at this point but it’s very funny that all the Critical Drinker type “film critics” are very upset about Christopher Nolan’s THE ODYSSEY but fully support Uwe Boll’s CITIZEN VIGILANTE. You guys are taking Boll over Nolan in the divorce? Okay

Two things: 1) I am so glad this @bilgeebiri.bsky.social feature exists because it's exactly what I wanted after seeing the film, which I'm definitely going to see again 2) it will have you flipping through your memories of Assassin's Creed Odyssey if you played it (perfect heat wave game btw)

The Odyssey, a film about Greek mythology with zero Greek actors in it comes out this Friday, and listen I’ve had more than a year to make my peace with this. (I even wrote an essay about it last year. It was longlisted for a BSFA award.)

Here's my story about the making of THE ODYSSEY, which is somehow one of Christopher Nolan's biggest films and also one of his most intimate. www.vulture.com/article/chri...
