Writer\/director Christopher Nolan\u2018s brother, who himself is a director and EP on Fallout, praised the upcoming Universal Pictures adaptation of Homer\u2019s epic as a \u201cspectacular film\u201d ahead of its July 17 premiere in Imax.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not working on The Odyssey. I have seen The Odyssey,\u201d the younger Nolan brother told CinemaBlend. \u201cIt\u2019s tremendous. It\u2019s an incredible achievement\u2026 I was fascinated by the Iliad and The Odyssey when I was younger, and I had some fun conversations with Chris about where he\u2019s taking it. It\u2019s a spectacular film.\u201d<\/p>\n
After moving on from Warner Bros. with his 12th film Oppenheimer (2023), winning seven Oscars and surpassing $975M globally for Universal, Christopher Nolan announced The Odyssey has his next collaboration with the studio in December 2024.<\/p>\n

Nolan told Empire, \u201cAs a filmmaker, you\u2019re looking for gaps in cinematic culture, things that haven\u2019t been done before. And what I saw is that all of this great mythological cinematic work that I had grown up with\u2014Ray Harryhausen movies and other things\u2014I\u2019d never seen that done with the sort of weight and credibility that an A-budget and a big Hollywood, Imax production could do.\u201d<\/p>\n
