Christopher Nolan's 'The Odyssey' Has A Wildly Stacked Cast, And My Inner Film Nerd Is Screaming
Okay, I'm already spiraling and the movie isn't even out yet. Over the past few months, Christopher Nolan has been slowly assembling the cast for his next project, The Odyssey —and if you're anything like me (aka someone who's still emotionally wrecked from Cooper crying out "Murph" in Interstellar), this already feels like a big deal. We're talking Tom Holland and Zendaya reuniting on screen (!!!), and Matt Damon looking like he just emerged from a wilderness survival show. Nolan hasn't revealed much—because of course he hasn't—but the whispers are already enough to make any Nolan girlie (MEEE) lose her mind just a little. But before we spiral any further, let's take a look at this absolutely stacked cast. So far, 19 cast members have been announced—yes, you heard that right. Nineteen. While not all their roles have been revealed yet (classic Nolan mystery mode), we do know that Matt Damon is stepping into the role of Odysseus and Tom Holland will be playing Telemachus. Just that duo alone is enough to make my brain short-circuit, but wait, there's more. We're also getting Zendaya, Anne Hathaway, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong'O, Charlize Theron, Jon Bernthal, Benny Safdie, Himesh Patel, Elliot Page, Bill Irwin, Samantha Morton, John Leguizamo, Cosmo Jarvis, Mia Goth, Corey Hawkins, Will Yun Lee, and Jesse Garcia. Like… how is this even real? +11 A few stars have started to drop little hints, and yes, we're clinging to every word. Jesse Garcia, fresh off Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Road Trip, told Cinemablend that the movie is 'huge' in every sense of the word. In his words: 'It's epic on all aspects. It's huge. There's gonna be a lot of stuff in this movie that hasn't been captured on film before. So it's gonna be a spectacle.' Matt Damon has finally said something about The Odyssey, and while it's short, it's very on brand. Per The Hollywood Reporter, when asked about the film, he simply said: 'I literally have an odyssey in front of me.' Classic Damon. He didn't spill any plot details, but that one line is doing a lot. Given Nolan's track record of going big— Interstellar, Tenet, Oppenheimer —and Damon's history of surviving space and war under Nolan's direction, we know this is going to be massive. John Leguizamo recently dropped a behind-the-scenes nugget in an interview on MSNBC's Morning Joe. He said: 'Dude, you know the thing is, okay he's got a crazy budget, it's not small, but he runs like an indie film because he's not doing it by committee, he's not doing it by what the studio says.' So basically: massive budget, but full creative control? Only Nolan could make a giant studio epic feel like a passion project. That's all we know for now, but if history's any indication, Nolan's about to break our brains (and possibly our hearts) in the best way possible. The Odyssey is set to hit theatres on July 17, 2026, and yes, I've already marked my calendar, cleared my schedule, and emotionally prepared myself for another round of existential crisis. See you in line.

Exciting News: One Piece Live Action Season 3 Filming to Start in 2025!
Live action adaptations of anime have historically always been a disaster. But things changed in 2023 when live action adaptation of Eiichiro Oda's One Piece was released on Netflix. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The show became one of the biggest hits on Netflix in 2023. Season 2 was announced soon after. And while we don't have a Season 2 release date yet, we now have an update about Season 3. , who is playing Crocodile aka Mr. 0, in the second season of the adaptation, was in an interview with Cinemablend to promote the Netflix film Nonnas. In the interview, he was asked if he could give an update about the upcoming season. One Piece live action Season 3 filming to start later this year The actor revealed, 'We've taken a break between Season 2 and Season 3. So yeah, I'll be heading back later on this year, and we'll be working on the next part of the story. So that's about all I can say.' While Netflix still hasn't announced Season 3 officially, this comment from Manganiello confirms the earlier comments made by his colleague Brashaad Mayweather. Last year, Mayweather, who portrays Patty in Season 1 of the adaptation, was in an interview at What's Popping! with Bruce Crossey. At the end of the interview he had this to say 'And hopefully, you know, there's a flashback scene with Patty. We'll see if they flash back to it because they're seasons, seasons 2 and 3 back-to-back starting soon, so we'll see what happens.' While many fans were excited hearing this a lot of people also doubted these words. Because considering Mayweather is not returning for Season 2 or Season 3, how would he have this information. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Also Netflix usually announces this stuff prior to it happening. But this is a smart move by Netflix as this story is so long you can't film a season every 2-3 years, these actors will age out by season 4 and we won't have covered any ground truly by then.
