Director Christopher Nolan presents his adaptation of The Odyssey, the classic Greek poem that most of us had to read in high school. Matt Damon plays Odysseus, the King of Ithaca, leading his men back home after fighting the Trojan War. His wife, Penelope (Anne Hathaway) awaits his return, but she’s got her own problems, like other men wanting to take Odysseus’s place. Meanwhile, Odysseus has to deal with storms, monsters, and a helmet that looks extremely uncomfortable. Take a look at the first trailer for The Odyssey!
The Odyssey is slated to hit theater screens on July 17, 2026, from Universal Studios.
