Christopher Nolan’s "The Odyssey" made a powerful start at the box office, taking in an estimated $264.1 million worldwide in its opening weekend. The film brought in $124.5 million domestically and another $139.6 million from international markets, giving it one of the strongest launches of Nolan’s career.
The early results also put the movie ahead of the debut for "Oppenheimer," another major Nolan release that became a significant theatrical success. By opening above that benchmark, "The Odyssey" has quickly established itself as a major draw with audiences both in the U.S. and abroad.
The weekend total marks Nolan’s biggest opening in years and signals strong momentum out of the gate. The split between domestic and overseas revenue shows broad appeal, with ticket buyers turning out heavily across multiple markets.
With a global debut of more than $264 million, "The Odyssey" has entered theaters as one of the year’s biggest launches. Its opening performance gives the film a strong foundation as it continues its theatrical run.
