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.",
