The trailer also introduces the character of Odysseus’s son, Telemachus, played by Tom Holland, who stands upright, unlike the infant that his father left before going to war. A lot of chaos awaits the troops who only wish to reunite with their loved ones. Meanwhile, Odysseus’s family is fighting a battle of its own.
A voyage to Ithaca is captured in the film as Odysseus takes the water route and meets some of the biggest hurdles imaginable. The infamous Trojan Horse is also glimpsed at in the first trailer, with a rare full-face look at Matt Damon.
Other cast members in the film include Robert Pattinson as Antinous, Zendaya as Athena, Charlize Theron as Circe, Jon Bernthal as Menelaus, Benny Safdie as Agamemnon, John Leguizamo as Eumaeus, Himesh Patel as Eurylochus, Mia Goth as Melantho, Jimmy Gonzales as Cepheus, and Bill Irwin as Polyphemus. Lupita Nyong’o, Elliot Page, Samantha Morton, Jesse Garcia, Will Yun Lee, and many more join the movie.
