Resale Tickets for Christopher Nolan's 'The Odyssey' Are Already Skyrocketing One Year Before Release
Movie fans are scrambling for tickets for Christopher Nolan's next film.
Tickets went on sale on Thursday to see the iconic filmmaker's upcoming film, The Odyssey, in IMAX 70 mm film, a full year before its release date. IMAX announced the offer on their official social media accounts, which included a list of 26 movie theaters showing the movie over the July 17-19, 2026 weekend, in addition to Thursday afternoon screenings across the United States, Canada, Europe and Australia.
The film will follow Odysseus (Matt Damon), the king of Ithaca, as he embarks on the journey home after the Trojan War. In addition to Damon, the film also stars Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Jon Bernthal, Zendaya, Lupita Nyong'o, Robert Pattinson, Charlize Theron and Mia Goth.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, 95% of seats were already sold, leading up to a total of $1.5 million in sales. As the day went on, tickets were being resold on eBay and other sites for anywhere between $300 and $400, compared to the original price of $25-$28.
This is the first time in history that tickets have gone on sale a year before a film's opening. The title is a follow-up to Nolan's Oscar-winning 2023 film Oppenheimer, which did huge business in IMAX theaters and made $957.8 million at the box office worldwide.
Though The Odyssey is currently in production, the first teaser trailer debuted exclusively in theaters in front of Jurassic World Rebirth, which opened over the Fourth of July weekend and has made $548.7 million worldwide in the box office within the first two weeks of its release.
The 54-year-old filmmaker's acclaimed movies include Inception, The Dark Knight trilogy, Interstellar, Dunkirk and Oppenheimer. Nolan often explores themes such as time, identity and morality in his titles, which all have earned mass critical and commercial success.
The Odyssey will hit the big screen on July 17, 2026.

Iconic '90s Band Shares Never-Before-Seen Footage of Late Lead Singer and Everyone's in Tears
Iconic '90s Band Shares Never-Before-Seen Footage of Late Lead Singer and Everyone's in Tears originally appeared on Parade. Although it has been over five years since Dolores O'Riordan passed away, the impact that The Cranberries' lead singer had on music is still felt today. As the principal songwriter for the beloved '90s alternative rock band, O'Riordan delivered her passionate lyrics with one of the most recognizable voices of the decade. Ahead of the band celebrating a major milestone, fans are revisiting just how powerful a voice she was. The surviving members of The Cranberries will soon release a 30th anniversary edition of their landmark second album, No Need To Argue, on Aug. 15. In the lead-up to its release, the band has shared some never-before-seen, behind-the-scenes footage from that time, including rare footage of the "Zombie" video shoot in 1994. In the TikTok posted on July 22, the band—O'Riordan, guitarist Noel Hogan, bassist Mike Hogan and drummer Fergal Lawler—perform "Zombie" in the ruins of a building as Dolores delivers the now-iconic chorus. Although the song is three decades old, it can still move the hearts of listeners. "I still remember the first time I heard this song as a teen. I was floored by Dolores's power and emotion. She was so inspiring," commented one fan on TikTok. "I miss her unique voice," said another. The following day, The Cranberries posted a clip showing different angles to the "Ode to My Family" video, footage they said contained "unseen moments until now." The tender track opens with "No Need To Argue," and TikTok explained that O'Riordan wrote it to remind people that "rockstars are human people who love their parents." "[This song] always makes me cry," wrote one fan. "Thank you for the soundtrack of my youth," commented another. Many said that they still miss O'Riordan, who in 2018 at age 46, died due to accidental drowning. Fans can purchase the 30th anniversary edition of No Need To Argue in three formats: a three-LP edition, a 2-LP/2-CD edition, or a single album/CD version. The special 3-LP edition will contain a previously unreleased demo of "Zombie," live recordings from the band's set at Woodstock '94, and their 1995 episode of MTV '90s Band Shares Never-Before-Seen Footage of Late Lead Singer and Everyone's in Tears first appeared on Parade on Jul 24, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jul 24, 2025, where it first appeared.
