The Odyssey Budget Revealed, Is Christopher Nolan’s Biggest Movie

comingsoon.net:

Christopher Nolan‘s next movie, , is already one of the most anticipated movies of the year, and according to a new report, will be his most expensive.

In a recent report from Matthew Belloni’s Puck newsletter, Belloni notes that Nolan’s upcoming movie will cost $250 million, putting it on par with Nolan’s most expensive film to date, 2012’s The Dark Knight, which had a gross budget of $250-300 million.

With The Odyssey already being reported at $250 million for its budget, it’s safe to assume this project is going to be Nolan’s most expensive to date. However, it’s unknown if it will end up coming close to being one of the most expensive films ever made. Currently, 2015’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens holds that designation, with a reported budget of upwards of $440 million.

Nolan’s The Odyssey will release in the United States theaters on July 17, 2026, from Universal Pictures.

“Christopher Nolan’s next film The Odyssey is a mythic action epic shot across the world using brand new IMAX film technology,” Universal said about the upcoming film. “The film brings Homer’s foundational saga to IMAX film screens for the first time and opens in theaters everywhere on July 17, 2026.”

Previously, it was announced that Robert Pattinson, Matt Damon, Tom Holland, and Anne Hathaway would all also star in the upcoming project. Early reports suggest that Pattinson, Damon, Holland, and Hathaway will make up “the core leads” of the movie. Lupita Nyong’o and Zendaya, both of whom were recently reported to be in the project, will also have supporting roles in some degree, as will Charlize Theron.
