Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey has stormed to the top of the global box office, defying mounting criticism from MAGA.

The 21st-century adaptation of Homer’s epic drew in $264 million in its opening weekend worldwide, Universal Pictures has disclosed.

The blockbuster debuted even stronger than Nolan’s Oppenheimer, the 2023 hit that ended up making just under $1 billion.

Of Nolan’s films, only The Dark Knight Rises made more in the first weekend following its release: in 2012, the Batman film opened with $249 million, or what would be $362 million today.

Nolan’s latest feat was expected to reach $100 million in its debut in North America, as projected by Universal.
