Summary
Peacock made The Odyssey: The Making of an Epic available to stream on July 14, offering a pre-release look at Christopher Nolan’s adaptation before its July 17 theatrical debut.
The documentary trailer highlights interviews with Nolan and Matt Damon plus behind-the-scenes footage from a production built around real locations, practical sets, extras and forced-perspective effects instead of heavy CGI.
That approach comes with a reported $250 million budget, putting the film’s estimated break-even point near $625 million.
Box-office expectations remain high after Oppenheimer grossed more than $975 million worldwide in 2023, while early reactions and a cast led by Damon, Tom Holland and Zendaya have added to anticipation.
