The Odyssey Box Office: How Much Does Nolan Need?

Christopher Nolan's swinging for the fences with The Odyssey, his adaptation of Homer's classic epic poem about Odysseus trying to get home after the Trojan War. Matt Damon's leading what could be either a visionary prestige epic or a wildly ambitious disaster. MovieWeb's breaking down the actual financial numbers needed for the film to turn a profit, which is worth paying attention to given Nolan's increasing budgets and theatrical-only release strategy. These economics matter more than ever for determining whether we get a sequel or if this sinks quietly.
