Epic Games has shown off footage of Odysseus’ skin in action \u2014 and yes, it’s clearly based on the likeness of Matt Damon.<\/p>\n
Fortnite leaker ShiinaBR<\/a> has also posted an image of a second The Odyssey skin, that of the hulking Agamemnon, played by Benny Safdie in the movie.<\/p>\n BOTH ODYSSEY FORTNITE SKINS REVEALED<\/p>\n Odysseus and Agamemnon drop on July 16 pic.twitter.com\/9dQxDFamHx<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Shiina (@ShiinaBR) July 15, 2026<\/a> <\/p>\n If you fancy trying your luck at getting Odysseus for free, there’s a typical in-game tournament to try and do so. For the vast majority of players, however, a low-ranking entry here will at least award you an Odyssey-themed loading screen.<\/p>\n It’s hard to imagine Homer (the poet, not the Simpson) anticipating that anyone from his epic ode would get turned into a Fortnite skin. Then again, there’s plenty of that going around \u2014 such as the audio version of the poem read by an AI reproduction of Michael Caine’s voice<\/a>, or the entirely AI-generated Odyssey movie that has been labelled as “Slopbuster”<\/a> rather than a blockbuster.<\/p>\n The Odyssey Cast and Characters: Who’s Who in the Christopher Nolan Film All 2 hours and 53 minutes of The Odyssey<\/a> set sail in theaters later this week on July 17, 2026. In addition to its star-studded cast, fans can expect a film that Nolan says he crafted to “do away” with “cultural prejudices” about the ancient world<\/a>. It will also feature an enormous practical Cyclops<\/a>. Now why isn’t that joining Fortnite too?<\/p>\n Tom Phillips is IGN’s News Editor.
