**Nolan’s ‘The Odyssey’ Trailer Leaks Online After Theatrical Debut**
Hollywood, CA – The first teaser trailer for Christopher Nolan’s highly anticipated film, *The Odyssey*, has leaked online shortly after its exclusive theatrical debut ahead of Universal’s *Jurassic World Rebirth*. The leak is a blow to Nolan and Universal, who intended the trailer to be a unique cinematic experience, similar to the strategy used for *Oppenheimer*.
The trailer offers a glimpse into Nolan’s “mythic action epic,” which boasts a star-studded cast including Matt Damon as Odysseus, Tom Holland as Telemachus, Jon Bernthal, Anne Hathaway, Zendaya, Lupita Nyong’o, Robert Pattinson, Charlize Theron and Mia Goth. It opens with a voiceover against a backdrop of dark seas, alluding to the aftermath of a great war and the uncertain fate of Odysseus. The trailer also features a scene of Telemachus searching for his father.
*The Odyssey*, budgeted at a staggering $250 million, marks Nolan’s most expensive film to date. The film is being shot entirely using Imax cameras. Production began in February, with filming locations in Greece, Morocco, and Italy.
Universal strategically placed the trailer before *Jurassic World Rebirth*, hoping to capitalize on the film’s expected box office success and generate buzz for Nolan’s project. While the early release of the trailer is unusual, given the film’s July 17, 2026 release date, the studio clearly aims to build anticipation for the adaptation of Homer’s epic poem. Despite the leak, the scope and cast are expected to make it a major draw.
