Christopher Nolan sings praises for THIS ‘The Odyssey’ star

Christopher Nolan is all set to release his epic movie, The Odyssey, later this year, which features Robert Pattinson, Anne Hathaway and Tom Holland among the cast.

The legendary movie-maker, who launched the latest trailer for The Odyssey, on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, said that the movie has been written in a “non-linear way,” because the original poem begins halfway through the story.

Interestingly, Christopher is currently busy making press promotions ahead of the release and it was during a Monday night appearance on Stephen’s show that he made rare comments about the Spider-Man star.

Christopher admited that he’s not worked with Tom before this movie, but he would “love to work” with him again.

Describing the Uncharted actor, as “an incredible talent,” the Oppenheimer director added, “Tom is so, so great.”

The admiration goes both ways as Tom previously told GQ magazine that The Odyssey movie is the “job of a lifetime”.

The actor also expressed his gratitude to Christopher for the opportunity.

Meanwhile, The Odyssey, which will release on July 17, cast also includes Anne, Matt Damon, Zendaya, Lupita Nyong’o, Benny Safdie, Charlize Theron, Jon Bernthal, Himesh Patel, Elliott Page, Bill Irwin, Samantha Morton, Jesse Garcia, Will Yun Lee and Corey Hawkins.
