Christopher Nolan's upcoming film adaptation of Homer's Odyssey, starring Matt Damon as Odysseus, has begun ticket pre-sales nearly a year before its release on July 17, 2026. Imax tickets are available for select cinemas that can project the film in the 1570 format, a choice made by Nolan. The film, known for its impressive visual quality, marks a milestone as it will be the first commercial feature shot entirely on Imax film cameras. Rapid sellouts in US markets have led to secondary market scalpers inflating prices significantly.
The first tickets to Christopher Nolan's take on Homer's Odyssey have gone on sale before he's even finished filming it and a year before the film is even out.
The Odyssey, which stars Matt Damon as the cunning Odysseus as he fights his way home after the end of the Trojan War, will be released on 17 July 2026.
Imax released tickets to the first screenings at 26 Imax cinemas that have the staff and equipment required to project in 1570 format, Nolan's preferred format.
In the US, almost all tickets sold out within an hour; soon there were reports of tickets being resold online by scalpers for between US$300-$400.
