Christopher Nolan returns with a visionary retelling of The Odyssey and we’re thrilled to be screening it on 35mm film here at The Tyneside.
A celebrated warrior’s decade-long voyage home becomes a reckoning with divine wrath, human frailty, and the cost of survival.
Weaving between Odysseus’s (Matt Damon) harrowing encounters with mythological threats and the political unrest in Ithaca, where Penelope (Anne Hathaway) struggles to hold their kingdom against a rising tide of ambitious suitors, the film boasts a staggering ensemble cast including Tom Holland (Spider-Man), Lupita Nyong’o (Star Wars), Robert Pattinson (Tenet) and Zendaya (Dune).
Shot entirely on IMAX 70mm across seven countries with minimal CGI, it’s the most ambitious undertaking of Nolan’s career. With stunning visuals and an epic score by Ludwig Göransson, The Odyssey promises to be a definitive big-screen experience.
