Nolan's Odyssey Makes IMAX History

Christopher Nolan's adaptation of The Odyssey is making cinematic history as the first commercial feature shot entirely with IMAX film cameras, following his collaboration with IMAX to develop lighter and more practical equipment. The film, starring Matt Damon, Zendaya, Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, and Robert Pattinson, is currently being filmed across Greece, Morocco, and Sicily. The release is scheduled for July 2026. After production, the newly developed IMAX cameras will be made available to other filmmakers, potentially influencing future large-format projects. Nolan’s project reinforces his reputation for innovation in immersive cinema and is expected to drive further demand for IMAX technology. Industry leaders believe this advancement could shape the future of blockbuster filmmaking by making large-format storytelling more accessible.
