Elliot Page at a fashion show last monthElliot Page has spoken about reuniting with Christopher Nolan on the British filmmaker’s next movie The Odyssey.The Oscar-nominated actor and Oppenheimer director first worked together 15 years ago on the mind-bending thriller Inception.Since then, Elliot has come out as transgender, with his upcoming appearance in The Odyssey marking his first time collaborating with Nolan – and the Umbrella Academy star’s first major studio film – since his transition.Speaking at New York City Comic Con over the weekend, Variety reported that Elliot told his fans in attendance: “I was so excited to be thought of for [The Odyssey] and to be asked to come back to work with [Christopher Nolan]. I loved working with him on Inception and loved being a part of that movie.”Christopher Nolan at last year s OscarsElliot added: “It was such a joy to come back.“To come back now, as you can imagine, being more comfortable in yourself makes these sorts of projects more enjoyable. To get to have a Chris Nolan experience again now meant so much to me selfishly.”In the last few years, Elliot has executive produced the drama Backspot and taken the lead in the short film The Tiger and the feature-length movie Close To You, which he also co-wrote.While his role in The Odyssey is being kept under wraps for now, he joins an all-star cast that includes Tom Holland, Zendaya, Mia Goth, Charlize Theron and Lupita Nyong’o, as well as past Nolan collaborators like Matt Damon, Robert Pattinson, Anne Hathaway and Benny Safdie.The Odyssey marks Christopher Nolan’s first big-screen offering since his film Oppenheimer scooped a string of wins at the Oscars – including Best Picture and Best Director – and is making history as the first movie in history to be shot entirely on IMAX’s 70 mm film cameras.The Odyssey is due to hit cinemas in July 2026.MORE FILM NEWS:Elliot Page Recalls Inception Cast Full Of Cis Men Making Him So Anxious He Got ShinglesCillian Murphy Reveals How He s Really Feeling About Not Being In Christopher Nolan s Next FilmThis Is Why Christopher Nolan Is Facing Backlash Over A Location On His New Film The Odyssey
