Just what you've been looking for: more Odyssey discourse! Yes, Christopher Nolan's hit film seems to have sparked unprecedented levels of online debate, covering everything from the historical realism to the costumes. And, of course, there's the question of whether Odysseus's biceps on the poster actually belong to Matt Damon.
Reader, they do not. They actually belong to a 4ft 6in, 35-year-old Canadian actress called Devyn Dalton. "My double was a woman, a female stunt performer who had the greatest arms I’ve ever seen,” Damon recently shared on the Happy Sad Confused podcast. That stunt performer is Dalton, whose 4ft 6in height and ripped biceps made her the perfect stand-in during a scene in which Odysseus and his men are confronted by giants.
