Matt Damon arrives in Scotland ahead of The Odyssey filming
The Odyssey - an adaptation of Homer's epic Greek poem - boasts an all-star ensemble cast, with Tom Holland, Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Anne Hathaway and Charlize Theron starring alongside Matt Damon. Slated for a July 2026 release, Universal Pictures describe it as "a mythic action epic shot across the world using brand new IMAX film technology", while Jim Orr, the studio's distribution chief, said it will be 'a visionary, once-in-a-generation cinematic masterpiece that Homer himself would quite likely be proud of.' Principal photography began at Aït Benhaddou in Morocco in February before filming moved to Pelopennese in Greece and the island of Favignana off the coast of Sicily - believed by some scholars to be one of the locations described in Homer's epic poem. Earlier this month, it was revealed that scenes for the film will be shot at Findlater Castle overlooking the Moray Firth in Aberdeenshire. It came after Variety named Scotland among the list of 'announced locations' for the film, while actor Jesse Garcia confirmed in an interview that The Odyssey would be filmed in Scotland - and Ireland. Speaking about the film, Garcia said: "The locations are beautiful. It's been fun to work with all the actors that we're working with, and everyone is putting everything into it. We're literally emptying the tank every day. "It's epic. There's going to be some groundbreaking stuff on screen that's really never been done before. [Nolan] keeps upping the game with everything that he does, and the way it's going to look on screen is just going to be incredible." Back in February, Universal unveiled a first look at Matt Damon as Odysseus in The Odyssey. The side-angle shot showed Damon, who worked with Christopher Nolan in Oppenheimer, clad in military armour. Nolan is no stranger to Scotland, having filmed parts of The Dark Knight Rises in the country. The opening scene, where supervillain Bane hijacks a plane, was filmed over the Mar Lodge Estate in the Cairngorms National Park. News of Matt Damon's arrival in Scotland for filming comes after Deadline confirmed that Joel Coen's next film, Jack of Spades, will shoot in Scotland this summer. The movie will star British actor Josh O'Connor - primarily known for his portrayal of Prince Charles in The Crown - in the lead role. Coen is best known of course for his collaborations with his younger brother, Ethan. Among their most acclaimed works are Fargo, True Grit, The Big Lebowski, O Brother, Where Art Thou? and No Country for Old Men. The film will follow Coen's previous solo release, 2021's The Tragedy Of Macbeth, starring Denzel Washington and Frances McDormand. Plot details for Jack of Spades remain under wraps, but there are reportedly offers out to two British actresses to star alongside O'Connor. The Herald understands that Coen is already in Glasgow ahead of filming starting. In an interview with The Herald in 2009, Coen, who has visited Skye repeatedly on holiday, hinted of a possible future shoot in Scotland. He said: 'I love Scotland, I visit there a lot for the countryside, the landscape of it. I go up to the Isle of Skye. "Who knows, maybe some day we will do a movie set in Scotland. It will probably have an American character in it though.' In other film news, Deadline also reports that Russell Crowe has joined Henry Cavill's Highlander reboot. The Oscar-winning actor is set to play Cavill's mentor in a variation on the part played by Sean Connery in the 1986 original. Earlier this month, director Chad Stahelski confirmed that filming is due to commence by mid-September in London, before production heads to Scotland. READ MORE:

All the stars rumoured to be surprising Glastonbury fans including big comeback
From mystery acts, cryptic Instagram posts and surprise appearances - fans are eager to know all the secrets sets at this weekend's Glastonbury and we've pulled together everything we know Worthy Farm is already buzzing as thousands have poured through the gates of Glastonbury 2025, with its music performances kicking off in style today. While most festival-goers have their must-see acts circled on the line-up, it's the secret sets that really set pulses racing – with Lorde already surprising a huge crowd at Woodsies this morning. This year's line-up has been drip-fed to fans for months, with headliners locked in and new names randomly popping up. But regulars know the secret sets are the ones to look out for. Every summer, the festival loves to throw in a few wildcards. It starts with whispers, cryptic clues buried in the programme, and the sort of social media speculation only Glastonbury can ignite. The X (formerly Twitter) page @secretglasto has been working overtime, tipping off eager fans about the biggest do we know so far? Let's take a look! Lorde Royal songstress Lorde graced the Woodsies stage this morning, with a secret set being played to a crowd which was so packed that festival bosses had to close off the area. A source told the Mirror: "It's sweltering inside the tent given the amount of people crammed inside. Bosses are urging people to stand up off the floor to make room. Some people are leaving as it's so intense." However, as the crowd spilled outside the tent, the source added: "Bosses have now shut down Woodsies as crowds are so big with a festival-wide message saying: 'Woodies is now full'." Lewis Capaldi Two years ago, Lewis Capaldi's Pyramid Stage set left fans in tears as they sang him through a powerful moment when his Tourette's made it hard to finish. Today, exactly two years on, he's released Survive, a raw track reflecting on anxiety, voice loss and that emotional performance, a move many believe is a clear nod he's about to return. Fans have already spotted posters around the site revealing his name and a set time, though there's still no official word. But when the lyrics, timing and buzz all line up like this, it feels almost certain he'll take to the stage. Robbie Williams Robbie's been toying with us for weeks, dropping hints about a Glastonbury comeback, three decades after he first crashed the festival as a newly-solo star. At first, fans got excited when he changed his Facebook photo to a 1995 backstage snap but with tour dates abroad, people assumed it was off the cards. . This morning, though, he posted two photos on X captioned simply '30 years later…' One showed a plaque reading: 'Robbie Williams entered this area without accreditation, authorisation, or alignment with prevailing taste. His presence was uninvited, unofficial and ultimately inevitable.' The second was the iconic 'Welcome to Glastonbury' sign - All signs lead to a Glasto comeback. Chappell Roan Finally, there's the mystery act billed only as 'Patchwork,' due to hit the stage Saturday at 6:15pm. The internet has been in meltdown over who it could be; guesses range from Pulp to Lorde, or even Chappell Roan. But it was Chappell herself who sparked a frenzy of speculation, posting a snap clutching a patchwork quilt with the caption 'insane vibe.' Between the post and the timing, it's looking very likely the Good Luck, Babe! singer is planning a surprise. With the weekend stretching ahead, we can expect more bombshell appearances no one saw coming. Because at Glastonbury, some of the best moments are often the ones that aren't on the schedule.
