"No one can stop my homecoming. Not even the gods."

On the morning of the 3rd, a press conference for the film 'The Odyssey' was held at the Four Seasons Hotel in Gwanghwamun, Seoul.

The film 'The Odyssey' follows the story of 'Odysseus' (Matt Damon), the hero who led the Trojan War to victory over ten years, as he endures trials on his journey back to his wife 'Penelope' (Anne Hathaway) and son 'Telemachus' (Tom Holland), who await him in a kingdom ravaged by invasion and power struggles in the king's absence. Matt Damon plays Odysseus, King of Ithaca, and Charlize Theron plays Calypso, the sea goddess.

At the press conference that day, director Christopher Nolan, who is visiting Korea for the first time officially, along with actors Charlize Theron, Matt Damon, and producer Emma Thomas, shared various stories about the film.

Meanwhile, 'The Odyssey' is set to premiere in Korea on the 5th. Alongside 'Hope,' which has surpassed 4 million admissions, and 'Spider-Man 4,' which broke the shortest record by surpassing 3 million admissions within one week of release, the film is expected to ignite full-scale summer box office competition.
