The Odyssey is the adaptation of the ancient Greek Poem of the same name by Homer, written in 800 B.C.E. Divided into 24 books, King of Ithaca, Odysseus, heads toward home following the ten years of the Trojan War. However, the journey is full of hurdles as the god of the sea is angry with Odysseus. On the other hand, his son has grown up and lives with his mother, Penelope, who gets approached by 108 men for marriage, as no one has any clue about her husband.
It’s basically a river full of content, and now, it would be interesting to see how Nolan will work on the ancient Greek tale.
