Odyssey fans baffled by resale movie tickets going for $400 a year before film’s highly anticipated release
Why are tickets for film coming out in 2026 selling for 100x the price
- IMAX tickets for Christopher Nolan's forthcoming film, The Odyssey, have sold out a year ahead of its July 2026 release.
- Advanced tickets, featuring stars like Matt Damon, Zendaya, and Tom Holland, were quickly resold for hundreds of pounds on platforms such as eBay after going on sale.
- Premiere screenings are planned globally in select cities, including London, Melbourne, and Prague, at theatres equipped with IMAX 70mm screens.
- The early ticket release is a strategic move, following the substantial IMAX box office success of Nolan's previous Oscar-winning feature, Oppenheimer.
- The Odyssey, an adaptation of Homer's epic Greek poem, is currently filming and is notable for being shot entirely with new IMAX cameras.
