According to Variety, production is scheduled to begin in the first half of 2025. Nolan will write and produce the film alongside his wife and longtime collaborator, wife Emma Thomas. The Odyssey is one of the oldest and most enduring works of literature, still captivating modern audiences. It tells the story of Greek hero Odysseus and his perilous journey home after the Trojan War.<\/p>\n

The filmmaker will reunite with actors he has worked with on previous films, including Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, and Robert Pattinson. Damon and Hathaway appeared in Oppenheimer and Interstellar (2014), while Pattinson starred in Nolan\u2019s 2020 sci-fi thriller Tenet. Meanwhile, The Odyssey will mark Nolan\u2019s first collaboration with Tom Holland, Zendaya, Lupita Nyong\u2019o, and Charlize Theron.<\/p>\n

In an interview with Variety, Tom Holland confirmed that he\u2019d been cast, but refused to divulge more details. \u201cTo be perfectly honest, I don\u2019t really know what it\u2019s about. I\u2019m super excited, but it\u2019s been pretty quiet about the project. I met with [Nolan] and it was awesome. He kind of loosely pitched what it is, and I\u2019m sure when he\u2019s ready he\u2019ll announce what it\u2019s about,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
