Tickets for IMAX screenings of Christopher Nolan’s film The Odyssey will be available in the United States starting July 17, 2025, a full year ahead of the movie’s official release. This early presale offers fans the chance to secure seats for the film’s highly anticipated theatrical debut, highlighting the growing excitement around Nolan’s latest project.
A star-studded adaptation of Homer’s epic
The Odyssey is an ambitious adaptation of Homer’s ancient Greek poem, featuring a prominent cast including Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Zendaya, and Robert Pattinson. The story centers on Damon’s character, a soldier trying to return home after a lengthy war, with Holland playing his son, Telemachus, searching for news of his father amid conflicting rumors shared by Jon Bernthal’s character.
Unique filming and screening experience with IMAX
This production is notable for being the first film shot entirely with IMAX film cameras, demonstrating Nolan’s commitment to visual innovation. Variety has noted that some select locations will provide early, limited screenings, but only where IMAX 70mm projection—the preferred format of Nolan—is available. Currently, this presale opportunity is offered exclusively in the US, with UK IMAX venues not yet listing advance ticket sales.
Ongoing production across multiple locations
The Odyssey continues filming across various scenic locations including Morocco, Greece, and Sicily, with the latest shoots reported to be taking place in Scotland according to BBC News. The production’s global settings contribute to the film’s epic scale and immersive storytelling.
Industry anticipation for Nolan’s new epic
Stunt performer James Newman expressed high enthusiasm about his involvement, stating,
“They’re never going to make a movie like this again,”
and adding,
“I think it’s going to be an epic of all epics. It’s going to be Nolan at his best. No holds barred.”
His remarks underline the expectations for The Odyssey to be a landmark entry in Nolan’s filmography.
Significance of the early ticket release
The early availability of Christopher Nolan The Odyssey IMAX tickets underscores the confidence in the film’s potential to attract large audiences well before its summer 2026 release. By enabling advance seat reservations, the studio is building strong momentum and catering to Nolan’s dedicated fanbase eager to experience this cinematic event.
