## Summary

Travis Scott has released "When I'm Home," a new track made with James Blake and composer Ludwig Göransson, as the closing song for the soundtrack to Christopher Nolan's film "The Odyssey." The collaboration marks Scott's feature film debut, in which he plays a bard reciting ancient Greek epics, and his voice is the first heard in the movie. It builds on Scott's existing working relationship with Nolan, who previously enlisted him for "The Plan" on the "Tenet" soundtrack in 2020.

The soundtrack was released on Friday 17 July 2026 alongside Nolan's film, which is based on Homer's epic poem. "When I'm Home" features dreamy production and lyrics referencing the fleet, the sirens and the Battle of Troy, mirroring Odysseus's journey home to Ithaca. Nolan has said he cast Scott partly to draw a parallel between oral poetry traditions and rap, and the film's cast also includes Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Zendaya, Anne Hathaway, Robert Pattinson, Charlize Theron, Jon Bernthal and Lupita Nyong'o.
