About the film

Defy the gods.

What it’s about

After the Trojan War, Odysseus, King of Ithaca, sails for home with a small force. The journey stretches into years as he faces trials that push his wits and humanity to the edge.

Who it’s for

It is worth a look for anyone who enjoys mythic quests where a hero's intelligence matters as much as his strength, and for those drawn to ancient worlds rendered with modern spectacle.

Trivia

All facts 10
  1. At the request of director Christopher Nolan, Matt Damon grew a beard for the role of Odysseus. The actor later said that he had never grown a beard before.
  2. Christopher Nolan decided to make this film because he had always been a great admirer of the work of visual effects master Ray Harryhausen, and also because no high-budget films based on classical mythology had been made for some time.
  3. During filming, approximately 640 km of film was used.
  4. During filming, specially created IMAX camera housings were used that muffled the sound of the camera motor and thus made it easier to record conversations. Attempts to create similar housings for the filming of the science fiction action film Tenet were unsuccessful.
  5. An IMAX camera holds only three minutes' worth of film. The camera assistant learned to reload the rolls so quickly that the actors had to wait only a very short time.
  6. To film some scenes, the equipment—and in particular the IMAX cameras weighing nearly 200 kg—had to be lifted onto mountain slopes by helicopters.
