Matt Damon in The Odyssey.

Christopher Nolan's upcoming movie The Odyssey is already receiving high praise from Universal. The studio behind the director's upcoming adaptation of Homer's epic poem have been calling it everything from a "masterpiece" to "visionary", despite shooting still being ongoing.

The tease came from Jim Orr, the studio’s distribution chief, who appeared at CinemaCon to hype up the film. Per Variety, he told the crowd that it will be "a visionary, once-in-a-generation cinematic masterpiece that Homer himself would quite likely be proud of."
