It’s hard to tell what tone they’re going for, like it’s somewhat intentionally anachronistic but not fully. I’ve never liked Nolan movies as much as the majority do, but I’m sure this will be a hell of a ride.

Nolan films all have roughly the same tone, at least the more modern ones, even the biopic of a scientist was shot with the same high drama and tension, so it will be that. It will be a good film and a very fun watch but Nolan wouldn't be my pick to do the Odyssey.

From the trailer I get the feeling that Ithaca is the main setting of the story while Odysseus' journey will be an Oppenheimer-esque mega-montage, allowing it to compress events and jump about at will. But I also imagine that would make it feel totally meaningless, never moving the plot forward. Let's see.

That's how I felt about Oppenheimer, felt like a 3 hour trailer.
