Christopher Nolan’s next cinematic venture is an adaptation of Homer’s The Odyssey, described as a “mythic action epic.”

Universal Studios announced the project, set to release in July 2026, and revealed it will utilise cutting-edge IMAX technology.

Following his success with Oppenheimer, Nolan continues his partnership with Universal, casting stars like Tom Holland, Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, and Zendaya.

Homer’s Odyssey, composed in ancient Greece, has inspired only a few notable screen adaptations, including the 1954 Italian film Ulysses and the Greek auteur Theo Angelopoulos’s Ulysses’ Gaze.

Nolan’s ambitious project promises to bring this epic to life on a grand cinematic scale.
