Imagine a world where we made a movie portraying the most influential and beautiful people of sub-Saharan Africa and cast white people.

It will be trash, worse than Gladiator 2.

I’m a quarter Greek and I think it’s offensive that a black woman is playing Helen in the Odyssey. This Greek culture erasure is disgusting!

It’s crazy that it gets released in summer but everyone on X has seen it and has some shit opinion about it

Did you ask him the obvious question about whether he cast the film specifically to get oscar consideration? Are the casting rumors true?

DOA. He bent his knee to the woke mind virus. Don’t watch this movie. Save your money. Rent Troy. less expensive and a better adaptation.

Nolan is a complete illiterate with Homer’s Odyssey and as someone who has Greek roots I’m disgusted and I consider it as racism against Greek people!

Greece should ban it! Such an insult

Of course 60 Minutes pimps this production since Helen of Troy will be absurdly played by a black African actress. They probably think they're sticking it to Trump.

Woke trash!

The retarded Odyssey

I am Greek. Christopher Nolan is destroying Greek history, all in the name of getting an Oscar nomination. Large —scale film making…no more like 💩🤬but I am most certain @CBS and @60Minutes will love this movie

Is it possible that Nolan is doing the ultimate troll, saying he is casting these goblins in prominent roles, getting everyone talking about it and then the film comes out and they're like extras or something😂 That would be masterful Trumpesq promotion, but I am not holding my breath.

Fuck off with this DEI bullshit movie It is an Insult to greek history

Christopher Nolan keeps redefining cinema and The Odyssey will be another masterpiece in the making

Is there a black director to replace Nolan to direct Nolan’s movies

Sorry but he messes up this time

I have taught The Odyssey and read The Iliad as well as The Aeneid. As a cinephile and longtime Nolan fan, I am attempting to hold judgement till Ive seen for myself, but the accents, casting, costumes are of concern.

This movie failing will actually be one of the best possible things that could happen to art right now.

Racebaiter

black Helen is an insult to Greeks

Nobody wants this.

Going to watch this. I'm not like the rest of x who live there moms basement and selectively choose to calm something is woke.

Not interested.

Woke bs. That movie’s going to bomb harder than Pearl Harbor.

Lol pass.

The xenophobic Nolan has ERASED MEDITERRANEAN ETHNICITY from a movie about one of the greatest MEDITERRANEAN STORIES. Does Hollywood really believe that Mediterraneans can only play idiots, mafiosi, and terrorists, but NOT THEIR ANCESTORS, THEIR HEROES, AND THEIR ANCIENT GODS?!?

You take yourselves too seriously with that statement.

Paid for by Chris Nolan , he thanks you !

Def getting tickets 🎟️💛
