The Odyssey has become the highest-grossing film of Christopher Nolan's career, surpassing $1bn at the global box office less than a month after its release on July 17. Nolan's previous most successful film was Batman The Dark Knight Rises, which earned $1.085 billion and is the highest-grossing Batman film to date. Alongside Damon, the stacked cast includes Anne Hathaway and Robert Pattinson, featuring in the highest-grossing film of their careers. It is the second highest-grossing film of 2026, following Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The Odyssey is the first feature film to be shot entirely with Imax cameras, which produces high-resolution content using 70mm film.
