Criticism of the film version of Homer's epic has come from Elon Musk and MAGA supporters, who have questioned the casting of black people, transgender people and the design of the armour.

The discussions that take place before people have seen the film are always irrelevant, because none of them actually know what the film is yet, Nolan says in the same interview.

The “Oppenheimer” and “Inception” director says he learned that a filmmaker must focus on his own interpretation of the material:

The only thing I can do is create the best film I can, in the most sincere way.

“The Odyssey” premieres July 17.
