Following Christopher Nolan\u2019s appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Universal Pictures has debuted an epic new theatrical trailer for The Odyssey, offering a jaw-dropping look at one of the year’s most anticipated blockbusters. \u00a0<\/p>\n
The new footage provides a stunning extended preview of the July release, including fresh glimpses of the\u00a0massive Cyclops, warring giants, a villainous Robert Pattinson as Antinous, and a first look at Charlize Theron as the alluring Calypso. Naturally, the trailer also features plenty of action shots of leading man Matt Damon, whose character traverses heaven and earth to reunite with his wife and son. \u00a0<\/p>\n
With an estimated budget of $250 million, the project is the most expensive feature of Nolan\u2019s career and his first to be shot entirely with IMAX 70mm film cameras. Tickets for these IMAX 70mm premium screenings officially went on sale last year, with most selling out within 12 hours. Many box office pundits believe The Odyssey\u00a0could potentially\u00a0become Nolan\u2019s highest-grossing title ever,\u00a0surpassing The Dark Knight Rises ($1.115 billion). \u00a0<\/p>\n
Universal has also secured an exclusive four-week IMAX window for the film, meaning it will be the sole attraction on those premium large format screens from July 16 through August 14. While this is great news for cinema\u00a0fans, the exclusivity will keep Spider-Man: Brand New Day\u00a0out of\u00a0domestic IMAX screens unless Sony is able secure\u00a0another\u00a0date later in the year.<\/p>\n
The film features a massive ensemble cast, headlined by Academy Award-winner Matt Damon, with a supporting cast featuring Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong\u2019o, Zendaya, Charlize Theron, Jon Bernthal, Benny Safdie, John Leguizamo, Himesh Patel, Will Yun Lee, Mia Goth, Jimmy Gonzales,\u00a0Elliot Page, Bill Irwin, Samantha Morton,\u00a0Jesse Garcia,\u00a0Rafi Gavron, Shiloh Fernandez, Corey Hawkins,\u00a0Nick E. Tarabay, Maurice Compte,\u00a0Michael Vlamis, Iddo Goldberg,\u00a0Josh Stewart, Ryan Hurst,\u00a0Anthony Molinari, Jovan Adepo,\u00a0Logan Marshall-Green,\u00a0James Remar,\u00a0Travis Scott, Sean Avery,\u00a0and Ian Casselberry.<\/p>\n
