Nolan's The Odyssey Adds Jesse Garcia, Will Yun Lee

Christopher Nolan's upcoming adaptation of Homer's epic, The Odyssey, has added actors Jesse Garcia and Will Yun Lee to its already impressive cast, which includes Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, and Zendaya. This mythic action epic will explore the perilous journey of Odysseus, King of Ithaca, as he returns home after the Trojan War, featuring iconic encounters with characters like the Cyclops Polyphemus and the witch Circe. The film, which is being shot using new IMAX technology, is set to be released in theaters on July 17, 2026. The casting of Garcia and Lee marks a continued expansion of the film's ensemble, which combines established stars with newer talent. Nolan's previous project, Oppenheimer, received significant acclaim, raising expectations for this ambitious new film. The first-of-its-kind IMAX presentation aims to bring this foundational saga to audiences in a groundbreaking format.
