Nolan's Odyssey Shatters Box Office Records | Global News

Christopher Nolan’s epic new film “The Odyssey” shattered box office records with a massive opening weekend, outpacing even “Oppenheimer” and becoming Nolan’s biggest domestic start since “The Dark Knight Rises.” With a $250 million budget and a global haul of over $264 million, the R-rated adaptation of Homer’s ancient tale is a cinematic gamble that’s paying off—driving IMAX to its best weekend ever and selling out screenings months in advance. Critics and audiences are raving, giving it top marks and an “A” CinemaScore. With no competition this weekend and strong presales for its second week, “The Odyssey” is setting the stage for a summer blockbuster showdown against “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” in July.
