Christopher Nolan‘s highly-anticipated new movie The Odyssey, is nearly here.
The film, which was written by the director and hits theaters on July 17, is an adaptation of Homer‘s ancient Greek epic that follows Odysseus, King of Ithaca, on his journey to return home after the Trojan War.
The Odyssey boasts an A-list ensemble, including Matt Damon as Odysseus, Tom Holland as Telemachus, Robert Pattinson as Antinous, Anne Hathaway as Penelope, and Charlize Theron as Calypso.
Lupita Nyong’o, Zendaya, Jon Bernthal, Himesh Patel, John Leguizamo, and Mia Goth all star as well.
Recently, Matt opened up about the challenges and the scale of filming the upcoming movie, which was filmed using a brand new IMAX film technology.
“I showed up on these locations was was like, Who f–king thought you could shoot a movie here?”
“It’s just so much bigger—it’s like surging a bigger wave. A wave that’s twice the size isn’t twice as powerful. It’s exponentially more powerful.” – Matt Damon, GQ
Jon Bernthal recently recalled taking his castmates out for dinner after wrapping his scenes for the movie.
“I told them, ‘Whatever you think in the day-to-day, just know you are going to look back on this and it will be the defining moments of your life. These relationships, these friendships, what you guys have built together, not because you’re part of this unbelievable movie, not because it’s got to be the biggest movie in the world, but because of the blood, sweat, and tears that you guys laid out with each other, for each other, every single day.’”
Lupita Nyong’o also recently responded to casting news backlash.
