Overview
- The first teaser trailer is out alongside limited IMAX showings of a six‑minute 70mm prologue as part of an IMAX‑focused rollout.
- Criticism has zeroed in on Agamemnon’s armor—especially the helmet—with viral posts comparing the look to superhero gear and calling it anachronistic.
- Other viewers counter that the film adapts a mythic poem, not a historical record, arguing creative license is appropriate for a fantasy context.
- The ensemble includes Matt Damon as Odysseus, Tom Holland as Telemachus, Anne Hathaway as Penelope, and Benny Safdie as Agamemnon, with Ellen Mirojinick reported to lead costumes.
- The Odyssey is scheduled for a July 17, 2026 theatrical release, with large‑format promotion continuing after the trailer’s wide debut.
