Universal will re-release Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey” in cinemas from 11 December, giving audiences another chance to see the film in Imax 70mm. The return follows a record-breaking theatrical run and brings the epic back to more than 1,000 screens across the US and Canada.

Released on 17 July, the film earned $626 million in the US and $1.8 billion worldwide, making it Universal’s and Nolan’s highest-grossing film. Shot entirely in Imax, it took $550 million globally in Imax cinemas over three months and set a record for the biggest domestic Imax 70mm opening. The film stars Matt Damon as Odysseus and is based on the ancient Greek poem.
