Universal Pictures just unveiled a sweeping trailer for the star-studded movie, which was shot across the globe and entirely on large-format IMAX film cameras.
Damon takes center stage as Odysseus, the brave and cunning king of Ithaca who gets waylaid for 10 years trying to return home to his loyal wife, Penelope (Anne Hathaway), and dutiful son, Telemachus (Tom Holland), after playing a key role in the Trojan War.
Along the way, Odysseus crosses paths with mythical creatures like the cyclops Polyphemus, the sweet-voiced but deadly Sirens, and the powerful witch Circe (who infamously turns Odysseus' crewmen into pigs). Meanwhile, back home, Penelope wards off suitors and Telemachus grapples with his father's long absence.
The sprawling cast also includes Robert Pattinson, Himesh Patel, Zendaya, Lupita Nyong'o, Elliot Page, Charlize Theron, Jon Bernthal, Benny Safdie, John Leguizamo, Bill Irwin, Samantha Morton, Jesse Garcia, and Will Yun Lee.
