The Odyssey: The Story of Odysseus
HomerNOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE, COMING JULY 2026--WITNESS THE LEGEND REBORN
The original adventure story, The Odyssey continues to captivate and inspire nearly three millennia after it was written.
A towering epic of adventure, cunning, and the longing for home, The Odyssey follows the perilous journey of Odysseus after the fall of Troy. Cursed to wander for ten years across a treacherous sea, the clever king of Ithaca confronts monsters and gods alike--outwitting the Cyclops, resisting the Sirens' fatal song, and braving the wrath of Poseidon--while his faithful wife Penelope fends off suitors determined to claim his throne.
Rich with suspense, humor, and lyric beauty, Homer's immortal poem explores what it means to be human: the bonds of family, the cost of pride, the power of endurance, and the pull of memory and home. At once a rousing adventure and a profound meditation on fate and identity, The Odyssey continues to speak, urgently and timelessly, to every generation.
