Tom Cruise Raves About Nolan's 'The Odyssey': "Can't Wait to See It Again!"
Tom Cruise showers Christopher Nolan's epic 'The Odyssey' with praise after an early IMAX screening, calling it an unforgettable theatrical experience. Get ready for an epic film!
Hollywood icon Tom Cruise has added his voice to the growing chorus of acclaim for Christopher Nolan’s latest cinematic masterpiece, "The Odyssey." Following an advance IMAX screening, Cruise took to social media to express his profound admiration, calling the film an “amazing night in a movie theater” and stating, “I can’t wait to see it again!”
Cruise’s enthusiastic endorsement came with a personal thank you to Nolan, producer Emma Thomas, and the entire cast and crew. He reinforced his long-standing advocacy for the theatrical experience by sharing a photo of himself with a ticket outside an IMAX 70mm screening, a format Nolan famously champions.
"The Odyssey" is an ambitious adaptation of Homer’s ancient epic, starring Matt Damon as Odysseus, the King of Ithaca. The film chronicles his arduous decade-long journey home after the Trojan War, a path fraught with mythical creatures, divine interventions, and deadly trials. The star-studded ensemble cast further elevates the epic, featuring names like Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong’o, Charlize Theron, Jon Bernthal, and Elliot Page.
While Cruise and Nolan have never collaborated on a film, they are both formidable champions of cinematic exhibition. Nolan's "The Odyssey" has already made history as the first narrative feature film to be shot entirely with IMAX film cameras, pushing the boundaries of the format to an unprecedented scale.
This isn't the first time Cruise has publicly supported films by his peers. He has previously urged audiences to experience Nolan’s "Tenet" and "Oppenheimer" in cinemas, and has also promoted other major releases such as "Sinners," "Twisters," and "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny." His unwavering commitment to the big-screen experience continues to resonate within the industry and with moviegoers worldwide.
