Is Tom Holland in the cast, and who does he play?
Yes. Universal lists Tom Holland in the cast, and NBCUniversal’s official press material identifies his character as Telemachus, the son of Odysseus. Nolan described the source story in that material as: “It’s not a story—it’s the story.” NBCUniversal’s press page gives the character identification and quote.
What is known about the vampire-story claim?
The official Universal and NBCUniversal materials cited here do not call The Odyssey a vampire story. They describe a film based on Homer’s saga. That establishes what the movie’s official description says; it does not establish where the vampire claim originated. The Associated Press reported on speculation around Nolan’s next project before the December 2024 announcement, but that report does not identify the origin of this particular claim. The Associated Press report offers context about the announcement, not confirmation of a vampire premise.

When did The Odyssey open?
Universal Pictures Canada advertised a North American theatrical opening on July 17, 2026, and now labels its page “NOW PLAYING.” That advertised date is in the past as of October 8, 2026. It does not establish current showtimes or availability in every country; check local cinema listings for screenings and formats. India’s Central Board of Film Certification independently lists THE ODYSSEY, Nolan as director and Holland among the principal cast, with a certificate date of 09-JUL-26. Its record corroborates the film details but is not a guide to local screenings: CBFC film record.

The film is an adaptation of Homer’s saga, not the source text itself. Readers who want the poem can choose a translation and edition that suit them; the official film description does not specify a particular translation as its basis. Universal emphasizes the film’s IMAX presentation, but actual screening formats vary by location and require checking local listings.
