The Movie Of 2026 Has Its Trailer: Preview Of 'The Odyssey' Is Officially Online!
The first glimpses of the new Christopher Nolan film are now finally available for endless online viewing.
Following the successful theatrical debut last weekend, Universal Pictures has now officially released the full teaser trailer for Christopher Nolan's latest film The Odyssey online.
This is not the same teaser that was released in July, nor the 5.5-minute IMAX prologue that was shown before Avatar: Fire and Ash. This is the official teaser that played in regular screenings of that film.
The Odyssey tells the epic story of Odysseus, king of Ithaca, and his perilous journey home after the Trojan War. The film explores themes such as heroism, loyalty, cunning, and the struggle against the will of the gods.
The narrative features iconic episodes, including the confrontation with the Cyclops Polyphemus, the seductive Sirens, and the mysterious sorceress Circe. Ultimately, the journey leads to the long-awaited reunion with his wife Penelope.
The cast is impressive: Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong'o, Charlize Theron, Benny Safdie, Elliot Page, John Leguizamo, Himesh Patel, Bill Irwin, Jon Bernthal, Mia Goth, and Corey Hawkins play key roles.
For this production, Nolan filmed over two million feet of material over a shooting period of 91 days. He employed entirely new IMAX technology, making this the first major studio film that has been entirely shot in that format.
After the success of Oppenheimer, the multiple Oscar winner that almost grossed $1 billion in 2023, expectations are high for The Odyssey. Everything indicates that this will be one of the largest blockbusters of 2026. The Odyssey is set to hit theaters on July 17, 2026.
