TRIVIA:
- This is the first feature film to be completely shot on IMAX 70 mm film cameras. Sir Christopher Nolan has long been a prominent filmmaker in advancing the use of IMAX technology in mainstream cinema, beginning with The Dark Knight (2008). For this film, Sir Christopher challenged IMAX to develop new 70 mm film cameras that are lighter and up to 30% quieter than the previous standard. In response, IMAX provided new cameras that met the requirements, and Nolan is the first person to use them, shooting the film with them from start to finish.
- The production used 2.1 million feet of film during shooting, a distance longer than the trip from Toronto to New York.
- The Cyclops Polyphemus was depicted by means of a six-by-six-metre-tall anthropomorphic animatronic puppet.

PLOT: After the Trojan War, Odysseus faces a dangerous voyage back to Ithaca, meeting creatures like the Cyclops Polyphemus, Sirens, and Calypso along the way. - IMDb
