Tom Holland is So Happy to Be Part of ‘The Odyssey'
Next July, we'll be watching Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey on the big screen. Audiences seeing movies like Superman and Jurassic World Rebirth in theaters are treated to a first look establishing Tom Holland's Telemachus on the search for his missing father Odysseus (Matt Damon). For Holland, getting to work with filmmakers whose work he grew up watching was a joy unto itself. During a recent GQ interview, he called the production 'the job of a lifetime. Matt Damon and Anne Hathaway have always been heroes of mine, so to share scenes with them, to learn from [and] become friends with them, I couldn't have asked for a better job. And I'm so proud of the work I've done. It was the best experience I've had on the film set, and I think the movie is going to be unlike anything we've ever seen.' Along with his costars, Holland put a lot of praise onto Nolan and his longtime producer (and wife) Emma Thomas. 'I've never seen someone that can work the way that they do, and there is a reason why they're the best in the business for sure,' he continued. 'To get a front row seat to that and to be a part of the process and to collaborate with a true master of his craft and learn from him was the best experience I've ever had. […] I came to work every day with a real sense of purpose and a point to prove, and I'm so grateful for Chris to have given me that opportunity.' Big words from Holland, and we'll see how he fares in Nolan's world when The Odyssey hits theaters on July 17, 2026. Want more io9 news?

"Spoiler alert: they were absolutely lovely, charming, and yes - somehow even more down to earth than you'd expect from someone who's been to Mars and saved Private Ryan. "Safe to say the team's productivity went out the window for a minute, but hey - wouldn't you be distracted if Jason Bourne was asking for an Aperol Spritz! "Good food, good vibes, and just your average day serving Hollywood superstar." Also posting to Facebook, Midlothian Council said: "Which Hollywood star did we welcome today on our alpine coaster? "When you've starred in Jason Bourne and Ocean's 11, high-speed thrills are just part of the job. "But even Oscar-winner Matt Damon couldn't resist the rush of our Alpine Coaster at Midlothian Snowsports Centre! Matt and his family took on our top attraction today — and let's just say, they enjoyed action-movie-worthy fun from start to finish!

This is widely known as Damon's breakthrough role which also earned him an Academy Award and a Golden Globe Award for Best Original Screenplay. After this, Damon further solidified his leading man status with roles in films such as The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999), the Bourne franchise (2002-2007, 2016), and the Ocean's trilogy (2001-2007).

Anne Hathaway's 2026 release roster: 'The Devil Wears Prada 2,' 'The Odyssey,' and more
The strong and refined reputation of Anne Hathaway's release roster for next year, starting in the summer, will be difficult to surpass. Anne's talent and stature speak for themselves in this regard, as the rapid momentum of these releases signifies success. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Confirmed Releases: 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' It's going to be hard to surpass the cult classic, but the OG trio (with a few new additions) Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, and Emily Blunt will all be returning to reprise their iconic roles of Miranda Priestly, Andrea Sachs, and Emily Charlton respectively — Stanley Tucci will returns as Nigel. The film went into production in July and is scheduled to be released on May 1, 2026. 'Verity' Anne Hathaway plays the titular role in the film adaption of Colleen Hoover's novel, 'Verity.' The film also features Dakota Johnson, Josh Hartnett, and Ismael Cruz Cordova. The dark plot will likely follow with Dakota in Lowen Ashleigh's role, as she agrees to ghostwrite for Anne's Verity. The film is scheduled to release on May 15, 2026. 'The Odyssey' Christopher Nolan is back with his epic release, 'The Odyssey,' a film being argued to possibly be his biggest project yet. Anne Hathaway will be sharing the screen with Robert Pattinson, Tom Holland, Zendaya, Lupita Nyong'o, Charlize Theron, Benny Safdie, and Jon Bernthal. The Odyssey is eyeing a July 17, 2026, release. 'Flowervale Street' Anne Hathaway makes a spectacular return to science fiction territory with 'Flowervale Street.' The plot of the film follows a family who start to notice unusual happenings in their neighbourhood. The actor will be sharing the screen with Ewan McGregor, Maisy Stella, and Christian Convery, among others. The film is eyeing an August 14, 2026, release. TBA: 'The Princess Diaries 3' Anne Hathaway will return in her princess shoes with the role of Mia Thermopolis, for the third time in The Princess Diaries 3, hopefully moving forward with the production. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The news first came in November 2022. Anne also confirmed later in April 2024 that the production was very much in works, but an official release date hasn't been announced yet. 'Mother Mary' David Lowery directs Anne in the upcoming 'Mother Mary.' According to The Hollywood Reporter, Anne will play the part of Lady Gaga-meets-Taylor Swift popstar who backtracks to find an old friend and fashion designer who helped shape her public presence. Michaela Coel, Hunter Schafer, Jessica Brown Findlay, Sian Clifford, and FKA Twigs also co-star. No release date has been locked yet.
