Fantasy Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey

[PepS]

Anne is playing Athena right?

That’s what I’m thinking.

 

[Boom]

This is kind of stunning? Never would have guessed this in a million years.

Nolan out here giving me everything I want.

 

[Ninjablade]

What a lovely surprise and fascinating choice for Nolan! I'm very excited to see what he does.

 

[Lily Adler]

The big question of course is whether this is going to be straight up fantasy or a "realistic" take on it...

 

[DarkKnight88]

Realistic fantasy.

I wouldn’t be mad if it took visual cues from Ridley Scott’s Legend.

 

[Kane52630]

My guess is something closer to Dune and Game of Thrones.

 

[JP]

Oh, wow. I haven't been interested in a Nolan film in maybe a decade, but I'll be seated for this.

 

[Gothamsknight]

If anything he's probably gonna break up The Odyssey into two parts ala Dune style.


Unless... this one movie is 4 hours long.

I wouldn't be shocked if it's 4 hours long. They'll give Nolan whatever he wants and rightfully so.

 

[Boom]

Nolan saw The Brutalist with its built-in intermission and went "Yes."

 

[VictusMortuus]

Holy bleep!!! I absolutely loved reading this back in high school and this sure to be an absolutely epic movie!!! I’m so beeping excited beyond words.

 

[Kane52630]

There was a time when I read it in school and imagined who would make this as a movie epic... I never thought it would be Nolan.

 

[Snow Queen]

 

[Kane52630]

What's the over/under on Travis Scott doing the music for The Odyssey?

 

[Drizzle]

I didn't think Nolan would have been interested in something like this but Nolan's Odyssey with that cast on board?

 

[Shinobi Shaw]

Well Nolan has my curiosity.

Wonder between Charlize and Lupita who'll be Calypso...

 

[Lily Adler]

Well Nolan has my curiosity.

Wonder between Charlize and Lupita who'll be Calypso...

I figured the most plain will be his wife and Calypso the most beautiful... So Chalize.

 

[Lily Adler]

Tom Holland is Matt Damon's kid.

 

[Sawyer]

Goddammit, the Odysseus Ledger could’ve been if he were still with us…

 

[Art Vandelay]

A remake of the 90's Canadian fantasy series? Awesome!

 

[Drizzle]

I'll also say that I don't think I would have had any interest in Matt Damon as Odysseus had it been anyone else directing this. I like Damon a lot and I'm sure he'll be great in this but out of all the Nolan vets out there, my choice would have been Jackman or Bale for Odysseus.


I'm also betting that Pattinson is playing the Cyclops or some **** like that.

[Arachnerd]

Please, control your gargantuan excitement, BN.

 

[Lily Adler]

Who's Zendaya?

 

[Sawyer]

Who's Zendaya?

Meechee.

 

[Boom]

He'll pull this off practically. Somehow.
