Tom Holland read the best script of his career when he received the screenplay for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey. The famed director's adaptation of Homer's Greek epic stars Matt Damon as Odysseus and Holland as his son Telemachus, and follows the former as he embarks on a perilous journey home after the Trojan War. Holland, who recently completed filming the drama, gushed about the project and his collaborative working partnership with Nolan in an interview with AFP. "The script is the best script I've ever read," he praised. "Chris is a real collaborator. He knows what he wants... but it is not an environment where you can't pitch ideas or build characters in certain ways." The Odyssey features a star-studded cast that also includes Anne Hathaway, Robert Pattinson, Charlize Theron, Lupita Nyong'o and Zendaya, among many more. After finishing up with The Odyssey, Holland got to work filming Spider-Man: Brand New Day, his fourth solo Spider-Man movie. The British star told the agency that it felt like "the first time" donning his red-and-blue suit, and that it "felt fresh" shooting the film on the streets of Glasgow, Scotland, which is standing in for New York. "Yesterday, I was on top of a tank driving down the high street in Glasgow, in front of thousands of fans, and it was awesome," he said. "It was so incredible, it was exciting, and exhilarating, and it felt fresh." The Odyssey and Spider-Man: Brand New Day will both be released in July 2026.
