Marking a monumental first for Indian cinephiles, Universal Pictures includes Mumbai alongside New York, London, and Paris as an official global tour stop for Nolan’s highly anticipated, all-IMAX epic.

In a historic milestone for Indian cinema lovers, Oscar-winning visionary Christopher Nolan is set to host his first-ever official movie premiere in India. The acclaimed director, alongside Hollywood heavyweights Matt Damon and Tom Holland, will descend upon Mumbai this July as a premier stop on their high-profile global promotional tour for the mythological epic, The Odyssey.

Nolan and his long-time producing partner and wife, Emma Thomas, will lead the star-studded delegation. Joining them are the film’s central actors, Damon and Holland, who portray the legendary Greek hero Odysseus and his son Telemachus respectively. Universal Pictures International has designated Mumbai as an elite anchor city for The Odyssey’s worldwide launch, placing it on the exact same footing as traditional entertainment capitals like London, Paris, and New York. The cinematic spectacle is slated for a synchronized global theatrical release on July 17, 2026.
