Overview

  • The teaser debuted exclusively before Jurassic World Rebirth but leaked online within hours via X and TikTok.
  • The 70-second clip introduces Tom Holland’s Telemachus searching for his missing father and shows Matt Damon’s Odysseus adrift at sea.
  • Filming remains underway across Greece, Morocco, and Italy, and the teaser has not been released officially online.
  • The Odyssey carries a $250 million budget, making it Nolan’s most expensive film and featuring a star-studded cast led by Matt Damon, Tom Holland, and Jon Bernthal.
  • The production is the first major feature shot entirely on IMAX cameras to deliver unprecedented visual fidelity.
