Universal Pictures' "The Odyssey" has surpassed "Jurassic World" as the highest-grossing film of the studio's history, according to PA Media/dpa. The epic adaptation of Homer's ancient Greek tale, starring Matt Damon as Odysseus, hit theaters on July 17 and has now amassed a staggering US$1.677 billion in worldwide box office revenues.
This total eclipses "Jurassic World's" US$1.671 billion gross, making "The Odyssey" the studio's biggest film to date. The 56-year-old Christopher Nolan, who wrote, directed, and produced the film, has made over US$1 billion at the global box office less than a month after "The Odyssey's" release, solidifying his status as a major force in modern cinema.
