An adaptation of Homer’s ancient Greek epic, the film narrates the story of Odysseus, King of Ithaca, and his perilous journey home after the fall of Troy.

The film stars Matt Damon as Odysseus, Tom Holland as Telemachus, and Anne Hathaway as Penelope, alongside Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong’o, Charlize Theron, and Jon Bernthal

Reportedly mounted on a budget of $250 million, The Odyssey has grabbed attention for its epic scale. In November 2025, Nolan had said that over two million feet of footage had been shot for the movie.

Speaking about the opening of IMAX ticket bookings for The Odyssey in India, Denzil Dias, Vice President and Managing Director, Warner Bros. Discovery India, said, “The Odyssey is the first film in cinema history to be shot entirely on IMAX cameras, a milestone Christopher Nolan spent nearly twenty years working toward. On June 8, for the first time in India, Nolan fans will be amongst the first in the world to be able to book their favourite seats alongside their fellow Christopher Nolan fans around the world. For Nolan fans in India, this is a moment worth marking. For the first time, they book their seats alongside the rest of the world, for the first film in history made entirely on IMAX cameras.”
