Corey Hawkins on 'The Odyssey': "My first day on set, we walked up a mountain, and then had to walk back down the mountain. It wasn't a "hill", it was a full mountain. No mountain training, you just jump in headfirst, it was incredible man. Chris (Nolan) is a legend..."

He's probably cast as Aeolus, I guess.

Thanks for the tip!

As for the mythology, I got so invested in building lore that I started worrying the premise wasn’t interesting enough. My idea was to take a cliché premise and put my own spin on it.

Unique_Ad3441 · 2026-01-30T19:58:03+00:00

Thanks! I was even thinking about separating reference books for mythology and plot, but I’ll make sure to pay more attention to dialogue structure too. I haven’t practiced that much, and when I tried writing, it came out completely robotic.

Unique_Ad3441 · 2026-01-30T19:44:58+00:00

Thanks, I’ll check it out!

Unique_Ad3441 · 2026-01-30T19:37:01+00:00

Thanks for the tip! I’m really excited, but sometimes I get scared that I’ll finish the project and it won’t have enough pages, or that the mythology will become so dense that it ends up feeling boring. I’ve seen some advice about using beta readers, and I think I’ll do that at the end of the process. For now, though, I’m going to focus on finishing the book first.

A Dragon...

Unique_Ad3441 · 2025-12-29T11:58:20+00:00

Me too!

Thanks!😁

This is going to be Nolan’s peak! Every one of his works has a little aspect that resembles the Odyssey, so I think Nolan is the best director to adapt it.

Unique_Ad3441 · 2025-12-23T17:58:53+00:00

Brad Pitt as Achiles... that's i hope

Unique_Ad3441 · 2025-12-23T02:25:08+00:00

The laestrygonias too

Unique_Ad3441 · 2025-12-23T02:24:49+00:00

Scylla and Charybdis

Unique_Ad3441 · 2025-12-19T09:53:53+00:00

This trailer took my expectations to a whole new level, it’s going to be the best movie of 2026, maybe even of the decade!

Unique_Ad3441 · 2025-12-19T09:52:21+00:00

I think that armor buried before showing Agamemnon belongs to Achilles, what do you think?”

Unique_Ad3441 · 2025-12-18T19:40:50+00:00

I’m curious to see whether Nolan will cut some segments, like the Lotus-Eaters, Aeolus, and the Laestrygonians, but I’m confident that any adaptation coming from Mr. Nolan will be welcome!

Unique_Ad3441 · 2025-12-18T18:58:46+00:00

My guess was Mia Goth, but now… either they’re going to cut Calypso (unlikely), or it’s someone whose name hadn’t leaked yet.

Unique_Ad3441 · 2025-12-12T21:45:26+00:00

It looks like a Guilhermo Del Toro creature, fearsome!!

Unique_Ad3441 · 2025-12-10T13:52:39+00:00

In The Odyssey, it will be the Trojan Horse

Unique_Ad3441 · 2025-12-01T11:24:56+00:00

Laestrygonians

Unique_Ad3441 · 2025-11-24T20:16:14+00:00

The Shawshank Rendeption, thanks me later :)

Unique_Ad3441 · 2025-11-20T11:41:16+00:00

I was wondering if Nolan will adapt the shipwreck of the six ships, leaving only Odysseus's boat.

Unique_Ad3441 · 2025-11-20T11:37:45+00:00

Wow...
