Oscar-winning filmmaker Christopher Nolan is set to bring his ambitious mythological period epic, The Odyssey, to India for a grand premiere in July. The event will mark the first time a Nolan film will have a premiere in the country.
Universal Pictures International announced that Mumbai has been selected as one of the four cities to host a premiere of The Odyssey, alongside London, Paris, and New York. Nolan will be accompanied by producer Emma Thomas and stars Matt Damon and Tom Holland for the event.
The India premiere of The Odyssey will be held at PVR Icon IMAX at the Phoenix Palladium Mall in Mumbai. The film, an adaptation of Homer's ancient Greek epic, stars Matt Damon as the King of Ithaca who embarks on a perilous journey home after the Trojan War.
The Odyssey is the first film ever shot entirely with IMAX cameras and will release in theatres worldwide on July 17.
