Christopher Nolan’s next epic, The Odyssey, is already popping up on Imax 70mm schedules a full year before its July 17, 2026 opening. A handful of theaters in Texas and Arizona have quietly listed premium screenings—and fans are buzzing because tickets don’t even go on sale until spring 2026. Universal and Imax haven’t officially confirmed, but this early sneak peek is a new level of hype-building that outdoes even the Oppenheimer rollout.
Starring Matt Damon as Odysseus, Nolan’s Greek saga will be shot entirely with Imax cameras—made possible by recent tech advances that slim down those massive rigs. It’s a big bet on premium format: in Oppenheimer, Imax showings pulled in $183.6 million of that film’s $975 million haul, so expect a similar push for this mythic adventure.
