Elliot Page reflects on reuniting with Christopher Nolan for ‘The Odyssey’

Elliot Page has recently shared his experience of working again with Christopher Nolan on The Odyssey.

For the unversed, the pair previously teamed up on the highly acclaimed movie Inception 15 years ago, which also starred Leonardo DiCaprio and Cillian Murphy.

During the panel discussion for X-Men: Days of Future Past at New York City Comic Con, Page, who came out as transgender in 2020, recalled sharing the set with the renowned director.

“I was so excited to be thought of for [‘The Odyssey’] and to be asked to come back to work with him. I loved working with him on ‘Inception’ and loved being a part of that movie,” he remarked.

Page added, “I was just completely jazzed and excited, and [I] basically went and met with Chris and talked about the part, then sat in a room and read the script. It was such a joy to come back. To come back now, as you can imagine, being more comfortable in yourself makes these sorts of projects more enjoyable.”

The Umbrella Academy actor noted that having the opportunity to work again with Nolan means “so much.”

It is worth mentioning that The Odyssey, starring Elliot Page, Tom Holland, Matt Damon, Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, and Anne Hathaway, is slated for release on July 17, 2026.
