The Odyssey, directed by Christopher Nolan, has beaten a record set by the filmmaker’s last release, Oppenheimer. The film, based on the popular Greek epic, has not even completed two weeks at the box office and has already registered a massive milestone in the North American market. The Odyssey, starring Matt Damon in the lead, has beaten Oppenheimer to become Nolan’s all-time third-highest-grossing film.
The Odyssey Beats Oppenheimer at North America Box Office
Oppenheimer was a biographical drama released in 2023. It was in direct competition with Greta Gerwig’s Barbie (remember Barbenheimer?). Well, Oppenheimer took 595 days to collect $330 million at the North America box office. In contrast, Nolan’s latest film overtook Oppenheimer’s lifetime total in just 13 days. On Wednesday, Day 13, the film earned $13.6 million, bringing its total to $334.2 million. Now, the Matt Damon starrer is trailing The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises.
How Much Does The Odyssey Need to Become Christopher Nolan’s Highest-Grossing Film?
Currently, The Odyssey is the third highest-grossing film in Christopher Nolan’s rich filmography. After earning $334 million, the film is now behind The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises. The Odyssey needs $115 million to overtake The Dark Knight Rises and over $200 million to become Nolan’s highest-grossing film. While The Odyssey has had a great run so far, it will slow down a bit with the release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
