The biggest film release of 2026 - Oppenheimer director Christopher Nolan’s next film, The Odyssey, is a mythic action epic shot across the world.

The Odyssey stars Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Robert Pattinson and Lupita Nyong’o, with Zendaya and Charlize Theron.

After his Oscar-winning portrait of Robert Oppenheimer, Christopher Nolan moves from the atomic to the mythic with his adaptation of arguably the most famous ancient text. Homer’s heroic tale details the arduous, danger- filled journey of Odysseus, King of Ithaca, from the Trojan War back to his homeland, where his long-suffering wife Penelope awaits his return while fighting off a hoard of conniving suitors.

Along the way, the monarch and his dwindling army are faced with many of the Gods’ worst creations and temptations. Matt Damon leads an all-star cast in the must-see film of 2026.

The Odyssey is produced by Emma Thomas and Christopher Nolan for their company, Syncopy. The executive producer is Thomas Hayslip.

Five young mothers living in a shelter strive for a better future for themselves and kids amidst challenging upbringings, directed by the Dardennes.

Five adolescent mothers live together in a maternal support home in Belgium, in this poignant slice of social realism directed by the Dardennes brothers. Facing challenges such as drug addiction, potential adoption, precarious living situations and complex family relations, the women deal with their situations individually, but the home provides the tools, support and the community they need.

Drawing on extensive research at state-run facilities and consultation with local social workers, this richly moving and empathetic film won a screenplay award at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, and – like much of the brothers’ work – displays the poignancy and compassion seen in the work of Andrea Arnold and Ken Loach.

This is the fully authorised, soulful, and wry story of James, the iconic-yet-unlikely Manchester band that survived a chaotic decade of missteps and dysfunction to achieve massive success.
