What are your thoughts on Christopher Nolan's next film being an adaptation of Homer's The Odyssey? I will be doing a video in a week or so discussing The Odyssey in more depth and going into how Nolan might adapt it.
@CortexVideos A good adaptation is Odissea (L'Odyssée/Odyssey) the 1968 european TV series based on Homer’s epic poem. Director : Franco Rossi. Cast: Bekim Fehmiu, Irene Papas, Renaud Verley, Barbara Bach.
Thank God he is not remaking Prisoner (the great Patrick McGoohan would turn in his grave). I guess the chance for more gadgetry was too tempting. I still can't see what was good about Oppenheimer except the hype. I watched it three times, thinking that maybe I have developed some cognitive degenerative disease. It was too long with inconsistent tempo, impossible to hear the dialogue. I thought Downey Junior's talent was wasted when you couldn't hear his obviously emotional monologues. At the core of it was the usual oversentimental family friendly story with lots of big stars doing cameos. It reminded me of The Great Escape or "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World of 1963" except not cheerful enough to become a Christmas favorite. For those who don't know just bear in mind that a marketing budget of $100 was decided before the film was discussed. This was because of what had happened with TENET. Nolan was so insecure that he had to make sure about the marketing before making another film. Then this fetish of playing with time is just out of juice. Playing with time in Oppenheimer's timeline unlike with Inception or Memento was unnecessary and the result a mess, he even didn't follow his own rule shouted in advance (clearly worried that it was not good enough for the film to convey it all by itself). I hate it when you get instructions on how to watch a movie or read a book. This idea of black and being objective and color sequences subjective was not consistent. The way the story was told didn't match with information flow. The linear time was easy to follow because three quarters of it was direct copy of the documentary by the same name except that drama of some of the shots were inappropriate because in terms of information value, we were told about it before. So, there was never going to be anything surprising about them. For example, the testimony of Russian hating Casey Afleck character was already talked about and yet he made such big deal of starting the scene with a mysterious shot of his shoes walking into the room and circling around from behind as if either Oppenheimer or the audience were to be surprised but the film had already given it away in the earlier scene. Please someone tell me why? Everybody knew what was going to happen. Then the so-called controversial death of his communist girlfriend that your lovers of the film refer to it so much as if Nolan had made some transgressive comment that FBI might arrest him for it. Then anyone who knows history the Teller character was turned into this hate character which is not true. In fact, of all of them he was the only one who defended Eisenberg against accusations of being a traitor by Bohr who thought he was ȧ profit and QM was not to be analyzed but accepted like a magic trick from God. Then Oppenheimer character was not developed; How did he turn from a fumbling fool into this assertive manipulative leader and then apparently suddenly felt guilty, being haunted by all the death and destruction for which he felt responsible. The film is a conformist sell out politically, totally superficial in terms of demonstrating the paradoxical human condition. A total nothing burger. Then there was the biggest hype ever about IMAX 70mm format that was the biggest lie of them all. Those who know it is such a noisy unyielding beast that you have to start a pan long before the action to prevent the jump or keep it at a minimum depth of field. But the film and all those photographs of Nolan next to a 70mm projector that only a few theatres in the world have the real thing was it made out as if the whole film was shot in that format. People who know next to nothing about resolution and projection technology were misled. I simply don't understand this nostalgic attachment to film when the biggest photography directors like Roger Deacons prefer digital and so should the directors. It is simple, you can see what you just shot immediately instead of waiting at least 24 hours to find out if you got it right. Because of that you have to allow a great deal more error margin, even if you have a video shooting the same scene at the same time. Imagine shooting the same scene 70, 80 times on a film. Talk about beating a dead horse. Nolan is an elitist and the kind of person that turned people to vote Trump. He is the 1% of the 1% with pretenses to be otherwise. He should learn how to make films from PTA. He doesn't need gadgets, but he makes the camera talk like the great guitar players like Gilmour or Richards in different ways.
The other week I was talking to a guy at work about how we’ve never really had a decent film adaptation of The Oydessy. But now it’s been announced that the greatest director in history is taking this on as his next project. So I’m excited. Whilst Nolan has done historical films before, he’s never gone back further than the 19th century, so it’ll be interesting to see what he does with this.
I’m calling it now, this epic film will win Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Score, and probably many more! July 17, 2026 can’t come soon enough!
The Iliad in connection with the Odyssesy (there are numerous spellings) is one of the greatest epic tells of literature ever conceived. Alongside the legend of Gilgamesh, believed to be the origins of the concept of all mythological heroes, from Hercules to Superman and even Luke Skywalker. If anyone can do justice and adapting the epic to film, it's Nolan.
So who will be playing Odysseus??? Let me guess….My bet is Matt Damon!!! For real he’s always playing a somehow lost mother fucker, think about it, Interstellar, The Martian, Saving Private Ryan, Jason Bourne. I’m just saying
While I was initially hoping for another sci-fi, I was moreso hoping Nolan was gonna go for an even bigger blockbuster after Oppenheimer - so this seems like the PERFECT next project! This is going to be a very design and VFX-heavy action epic that’ll push Nolan outside of his usual wheelhouse. I quickly realized that this is gonna be his first movie with fantasy creatures/monsters and I’m super excited to see how he’s gonna approach The Sirens, Cyclops, Scylla and Charibdys, etc. he’s never really worked with fully CG characters before, so I’m curious to see what technical approach he’s gonna take to these fantastical elements
@@ricky93100for sure he will go for practical as much as possible. I would'nt be surprised if this is gonna be a more modern contemporary take on the epic than a straight up mythical historical version of the story.
@sreenivaskamath4243 i might have thought the same but the Universal tweet explicitly said "mythic" action epic. Plus I think Nolan would want to respect the tale by fully adapting it truly. He could choose only the parts of it that don't involve mythic creatures though haha
Universal: we're making a movie about "THE ODYSSEY" Audience: That's cool! Universal: And it's directed by Nolan. Audience: TAKE IT ALL!!! 💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵 💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵
Hope Nolan has been working with Professor Dr. Emily Wilson, the British-American classicist, author, Professor and Chair of Classical Studies at the University of Pennsylvania, who has recently published a translation of “The Odyssey” and has a deep knowledge and understanding of the poem and what it’s really about (her interviews and videos on “The Odyssey” are enlightening - that the poem is really about what it means to come home and what a homecoming is about and how it effects other relationships). Hope Nolan has been consulting with her and that she’s part of the production.(like Kip Thorne was for Nolan on Interstellar).
if the lord of the rings was deemed unfilmable and PJ pulled it off, nolan will hit a home run with this and i think he'll take a leaf from jacksons book when it comes to techniques etc etc
The fact that he’s going to try to shoot the movie all around the world is so cool to me as that’s a great usage to display Odysseus’s travels. And it’s also means there’s going to be ALOT of water!
The last mythic figure Nolan dealt with was Batman, and his approach was to bring him down to earth - that worked very well, but I hope he doesn't take this same approach to Homer - we already saw that approach w Peterson's Troy, and I'd like to see someone hurl themself into Homer's more fantastical aspects and paint the screen w them - but Nolan will do justice to the themes, I think - IMO this should be a new cinematic universe, w the Iliad, the Odyssey, Virgil's Aeneid - and even Dante's Inferno, w various spinoffs
This was not on my bingo card for him at all, but I’m glad I was wrong. Just like Oppenheimer, I cannot come even close to imagining the final project.
@@CortexVideos I had a pirate horror story as my number one. Haha. Maybe he’ll lean into his interest in doing something darker and intense for the more mythic elements.
This news came out at a perfect time. Just after a let down from Gladiator II, I can get rock hard for Nolan's Odyssey by re-watching the first Gladiator and Troy. We're eating good, boys.
I think Nolon is willing to enter into heavy CGI territory with a fantasy epic is because of what we saw Villeneuve so with Dune. The giant worms and world felt very believable.
I wonder if this is a modern symbolic adaptation of Odyssey rather than just the mythic tale. Nolan’s also known for not using CGI so it’ll be very interesting to see how he shoots the fantasy elements. In any case, I’m excited for July 2026.
That will come out in like 2030 maybe , since his three orginal films , which are : Memento (2000) , Inception ( 2010 ) and Tenet ( 2020 ) , came out like with a gap of like 10 Years each !!
This is the best movie news I’ve heard since lord of the rings. Christopher Nolan, plus the odyssey 👍 also, I think the cast will need an important Athena role more than Circe.
I think Nolan has got a taste for Oscar success now. Seems like this will be another film that will get nominations at the Oscar’s. Whilst I’m not a fan of historical epics, I much prefer his sci-fi movies, I hope he does get back to more original film ideas in the future
I'm sure we'll get it in some form some day. Good thing is that Nolan does incorporate horror elements in his films. So I can see it happening at some point.
@@sakuragi1062Christopher Reeve was cast as an unknown for Superman, likewise Mark Hamiil and Harrison Ford for the first Star Wars and Orlando Bloom for LOTR !
Tom Holland is too young to play Odysseus, Robert Pattinson too skinny so that leaves with Matt Damon which is the right age and has the body to embody such titanic figure.
I just hope the gods look like gods lol Pattinson as Poseidon? Idk hope he beefs up because he needs to for his batman role anyway lol 😂😂. Nolan needs to get hans Zimmer for the music without a doubt theres no one else i trust to do music for that time period and for filming hes the best their is.
Because Christopher’s films are all based on realism and grounded I think Odysseus will be dyhdrated and come across many temptations that will keep him from returning home. I don’t think we are going to see giants or monsters in this film. Maybe the Trojan war? But all I want is the actors to have a proper Greek accent and not a British one. Please 🙏🏻
This is from a director who says he doesn’t like CGI he wants to do everything for real… Well, this is going to be all CGI… To be honest I don’t think he’s a deep enough thinker to take on this project. Of all his movies I’ve only liked two of them; memento, and Oppenheimer.
Well you think wrong majority of his films besides the Batman movies has complexity when it comes to storytelling and plot and he doesn’t need to use CGI he is known for using practical effects Interstellar should be a heavy greenscreen cgi but all of it was done by practical effects so i think Nolan is fine with this movie
Well... You have lost a huge majority of people who are fed up of Hollywood trying to ship Tom Holland and Zendaya all the time... Sick of their mediocrity
With all the due respect he deserves Nolan carries himself like a cinema genius yet most of his work is based on somebody else's ideas. Amazing control of the visual presentation. New or creative ideas nah.
Interstellar, inception, memento, prestige, tenet and so many more of Nolan films are original ideas. It’s just Oppenheimer and this movie that will be based on someone else’s ideas

A good adaptation is Odissea (L'Odyssée/Odyssey) the 1968 european TV series based on Homer’s epic poem.
Director : Franco Rossi.
Cast: Bekim Fehmiu, Irene Papas, Renaud Verley, Barbara Bach.
I am curious to see how Nolan's narrative playing with memories will work.b
Race mixing and race revisionism, so totally unlike literally every other movies coming out. Wowe.
Thank God he is not remaking Prisoner (the great Patrick McGoohan would turn in his grave).
I guess the chance for more gadgetry was too tempting. I still can't see what was good about Oppenheimer except the hype. I watched it three times, thinking that maybe I have developed some cognitive degenerative disease.
It was too long with inconsistent tempo, impossible to hear the dialogue. I thought Downey Junior's talent was wasted when you couldn't hear his obviously emotional monologues.
At the core of it was the usual oversentimental family friendly story with lots of big stars doing cameos. It reminded me of The Great Escape or "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World of 1963" except not cheerful enough to become a Christmas favorite.
For those who don't know just bear in mind that a marketing budget of $100 was decided before the film was discussed. This was because of what had happened with TENET. Nolan was so insecure that he had to make sure about the marketing before making another film.
Then this fetish of playing with time is just out of juice. Playing with time in Oppenheimer's timeline unlike with Inception or Memento was unnecessary and the result a mess, he even didn't follow his own rule shouted in advance (clearly worried that it was not good enough for the film to convey it all by itself). I hate it when you get instructions on how to watch a movie or read a book. This idea of black and being objective and color sequences subjective was not consistent. The way the story was told didn't match with information flow.
The linear time was easy to follow because three quarters of it was direct copy of the documentary by the same name except that drama of some of the shots were inappropriate because in terms of information value, we were told about it before.

In fact, of all of them he was the only one who defended Eisenberg against accusations of being a traitor by Bohr who thought he was ȧ profit and QM was not to be analyzed but accepted like a magic trick from God.
Then Oppenheimer character was not developed; How did he turn from a fumbling fool into this assertive manipulative leader and then apparently suddenly felt guilty, being haunted by all the death and destruction for which he felt responsible.

The Odyssey is my favorite greek mythological epic, i hope Christopher Nolan can do justice to the source material.
Same here, but I believe he is the man to be able to do it…
He will not disappoint. This will be his biggest project aside from interstellar
That’s like saying The Bible is your favorite Christian writing😂
@@Ll-hh8ed I think it would be more like saying the lliad is your favorite Greek mythology epic lol
It’s called Macedonian mythology Greece became a country in the 1800
I’m calling it now, this epic film will win Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Score, and probably many more! July 17, 2026 can’t come soon enough!
Well I wouldn’t say best picture but best screen adaptation
You are delusional.
I am so hype! I will be here following this movie with you for the next year and a half!
Wow! Never saw this coming! I think he’ll make an awesome epic!
Crossing my fingers to see Robert Pattinson play the Cyclops and Charlize Theron as Circe.
It’ll be game changing
Couldn't be more happier and also crazy surprising. Really exciting to get a big Nolanesque historical epic
“Historical” should be said extremely loosely as it’s mainly an epic fantasy tale.
The Iliad in connection with the Odyssesy (there are numerous spellings) is one of the greatest epic tells of literature ever conceived. Alongside the legend of Gilgamesh, believed to be the origins of the concept of all mythological heroes, from Hercules to Superman and even Luke Skywalker. If anyone can do justice and adapting the epic to film, it's Nolan.
Omg this is going to be amazing!
Just like Nolan’s last film, I need to do some homework. Time to re-read The Odyssey.
Hell f*cking yes! I loved the Odyssey as a child, still love it today.
A whole movie based on a Honda family minivan? I’m for it.
Vehicle-to-movie adaptation is the big deal in Hollywood these days 🤣
lmaooooo
So who will be playing Odysseus??? Let me guess….My bet is Matt Damon!!! For real he’s always playing a somehow lost mother fucker, think about it, Interstellar, The Martian, Saving Private Ryan, Jason Bourne. I’m just saying
Hell yeah, wanna see them sliding doors and them foldable seats in slow motion IMAX glory 😎🤣🔥💯
That’s pretty funny.
This is incredible. I would have loved to have seen his version of The Prisoner, but this could be even better.

I imagine he’s going to go practical as much as possible
@@ricky93100for sure he will go for practical as much as possible.
I would'nt be surprised if this is gonna be a more modern contemporary take on the epic than a straight up mythical historical version of the story.

Nolan doing The Odyssey and Villeneuve doing Cleopatra. WB & Universal should be giving these dudes blank checks and just lettin them cook.
I'm sure they will man. Both are cooking.
Yo I love period epics... This is gonna be awesome
^^^yes these guys should tackle the Bride of Chuckie sequel....
Epic 💪🏿😤⚡

Yes but the LOTR movies were 12 hours in total. Doing the Odyssey in anything less than 4 hours is almost impossible
That was trilogy with extended cuts as a bonus. Totally different
NEVER READ THE ODYSSEY BUT THIS FILM SOUNDS TUFF AF💯🔥🔥
The fact that he’s going to try to shoot the movie all around the world is so cool to me as that’s a great usage to display Odysseus’s travels. And it’s also means there’s going to be ALOT of water!
I'm really interested in this
This is the best kind of news! 🤩🤩
I love Ludwig Göransson's work, but man, this movie needs Hans Zimmer !
I can't wait to see this.
Wonderfully exciting news
🔥
Love it !!! Perfect choice for Nolan !!!
This will be interesting as hell
I've learned about Odysseus in middle school. I would be interested in watching that movie since I really love greek mythology.
A lot of people I've spoken to have said a similar thing. Gonna be exciting to see Nolans take on it.
What a great thumbnail, hats off 😊

Suitors: 'WHO ARE YOU OLD MAN!?'

Interesting, but I would prefer Nolan got back to original stories. Hollywood badly needs it.
The Odyssey is so ancient, nay "pre-historic" that it will feel wholly original, trust that. The story is so wild and inconceivable for a modern mind.
The Return was a good movie The Odyssey Christopher Nolan version is goin to be Epic asf 💪🏿😤⚡
"The Return" is a great simple story and film! I enjoyed it much. Interesting, how Nolan will develop and film his rendition of the story.
This was not on my bingo card for him at all, but I’m glad I was wrong. Just like Oppenheimer, I cannot come even close to imagining the final project.
I said the same thing to a few people. That's something I really admire about him from film to film.
@@CortexVideos I had a pirate horror story as my number one. Haha. Maybe he’ll lean into his interest in doing something darker and intense for the more mythic elements.

I wonder if this is a modern symbolic adaptation of Odyssey rather than just the mythic tale. Nolan’s also known for not using CGI so it’ll be very interesting to see how he shoots the fantasy elements. In any case, I’m excited for July 2026.
Since he uses practical effects, I wonder if he will use advanced stop motion techniques for creatures like the Scylla.
Something I'm gonna be grappling with until we see the first footage.
@ Phil Tippett from Empire Strikes Back and Robocop is still around. I also wonder if he will team up with Stan Winston’s studio too.
I would have preferred an original horror/sci fi film
That will come out in like 2030 maybe , since his three orginal films , which are : Memento (2000) , Inception ( 2010 ) and Tenet ( 2020 ) , came out like with a gap of like 10 Years each !!
@KAYSINE-f2o I think The Following and Interstellar are originals too, but I get ur point
You can only get excited over this news. I'm not so sure about the cast but as the saying goes, "In Nolan we trust".
Best director of our generation
The new technology IMAX is developing is the 3-strip color process of classic Hollywood films adapted for imax cameras.
This is the best movie news I’ve heard since lord of the rings. Christopher Nolan, plus the odyssey 👍 also, I think the cast will need an important Athena role more than Circe.
Currently reading eh Song of Achilles, hopefully will read the Illiad and Odyssey till the movie releases.
*_The Odyssey had a purpose...._*
This will be interesting as hell, would not cast Matt Damon though, I just think of The Great Wall
Would be funny if they casted Sean Bean as old Odysseus. just to make this an unofficial sequal to Troy.
I think Nolan has got a taste for Oscar success now. Seems like this will be another film that will get nominations at the Oscar’s. Whilst I’m not a fan of historical epics, I much prefer his sci-fi movies, I hope he does get back to more original film ideas in the future
I’m…ODYSSEUS! (Blaring Zimmer Horns).
Noooo!!! I wanted my horror Nolan movie now!!!
I'm sure we'll get it in some form some day. Good thing is that Nolan does incorporate horror elements in his films. So I can see it happening at some point.
I believe this might be Nolans biggest challenge yet. Also by considering that this mostly story filled with monsters.

Since when that would work?

Yes…
Please tell me matt damon and tom holland are not Odysseus
Brad Pitt would be better
Holy hell
Was The Return any good ?
Yes. It’s a quiet, contemplative film that takes its time and revels in its landscapes. Ralph Fiennes is also excellent in the film.
Tom Holland is too young to play Odysseus, Robert Pattinson too skinny so that leaves with Matt Damon which is the right age and has the body to embody such titanic figure.
Fat Damon
I struggle a bit with imagining Matt in the role -
Anne will be Penelope, Zendaya Athena, Tom as the son,
now The Odyssey added in the cast is Charlize Theron...
bro is quickly scaling up mount pompous
zendaya
Ok a Matt Damon x Chris Nolan film was long overdue.
Am I the only one who is disappointed with this being his next film? I wanted another original concept from him, like Tenet and Inception.
I will never spend a dime on Tom Holland or Nolans mainstream slop
So is he going to remake o brother where art thou?
I nope it's not a modern version of it because we already have that
The twist is he's going to tell the story backward.
I just hope the gods look like gods lol Pattinson as Poseidon? Idk hope he beefs up because he needs to for his batman role anyway lol 😂😂. Nolan needs to get hans Zimmer for the music without a doubt theres no one else i trust to do music for that time period and for filming hes the best their is.
Jason and the Argonauts would be great too, all about the casting and style
Only Christopher Nolan....
Genius ❤

Because Christopher’s films are all based on realism and grounded I think Odysseus will be dyhdrated and come across many temptations that will keep him from returning home. I don’t think we are going to see giants or monsters in this film. Maybe the Trojan war? But all I want is the actors to have a proper Greek accent and not a British one. Please 🙏🏻
Let's hope there won't be any dinosaurs in it...
This is from a director who says he doesn’t like CGI he wants to do everything for real… Well, this is going to be all CGI… To be honest I don’t think he’s a deep enough thinker to take on this project. Of all his movies I’ve only liked two of them; memento, and Oppenheimer.
