Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis called Christopher Nolan on Monday to personally congratulate him on bringing Homer's Odyssey to the big screen. The two spoke via video call, with Mitsotakis praising the film's massive commercial success and thanking Nolan for choosing Greece as a filming location for a significant portion of the production. During the call, Mitsotakis told Nolan that productions like the Odyssey help bridge Greece's ancient cultural heritage with modern creative storytelling, and that the film is already generating renewed global interest in ancient Greek civilization. Nolan's Odyssey has become one of the biggest box office events of the year. The Greek PM specifically singled out the fact that a large part of the film was shot on Greek soil, calling it a meaningful contribution to both Greece's cultural standing and its visibility on the world stage. The call reflects Athens' growing effort to position Greece as a premier destination for major international film productions. #Odyssey #ChristopherNolan #Greece
