The summer box-office is already heating up, and Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey is still several days away from release. Easily the most-anticipated film of 2026,The Odyssey is also the most expensive project of Nolan's career, which has almost exclusively unfolded in the big-budget arena. Nolan is coming off his first-ever Best Picture and Best Director wins at the Oscars, taking him to a level that even he hadn't experienced before. Oppenheimer, the epic biographical thriller that won Nolan his Best Director Academy Award, grossed nearly $1 billion at the worldwide box office, and The Odyssey is expected to eclipse it. So steep has been his career trajectory that one of his older classics was able to gross around $100 million globally via its re-release alone.
