Nevertheless, for those who have been scrolling on X or TikTok that afternoon, you’ll have come throughout some leaked footage filmed in cinemas. (We don’t condone filming within the movie show!! Have some class!) A lot of the leaked clips have been swiftly taken down, and it’s at the moment unclear whether or not Common plans to launch the teaser on-line. So, for many who haven’t caught it but, right here’s a abstract of what the footage exhibits.
It begins with a sprawling shot of the ocean paired with some narration from somebody who sounds prefer it could possibly be R-Patz. “Darkness. Zeus’ legal guidelines smashed to items. A kingdom and not using a king since my grasp died. He knew it was an unwinnable warfare, after which by some means…by some means he received it,” he says, because the digicam cuts to 2 totally different photographs of what’s presumably the Trojan Horse, which Odysseus makes use of to smuggle Greek troopers into Troy and win the warfare.
We then get our first little bit of onscreen appearing within the type of a tense dialog between Tom Holland as Telemachus and a personality performed by Jon Bernthal. We don’t know but who Jon is enjoying, however within the scene, Telemachus, with tears streaming down his face, asks: “I’ve to search out out what occurred to my father. When did you final see him?” In response, Jon’s character says, “Concerned about rumor, huh? Gossip,” earlier than yelling to the folks round them, “Who has a narrative about Odysseus, huh? You!? You may have a narrative!?”
That is adopted by what seems to be our first have a look at Matt in motion as an armored-up Odysseus. The shot exhibits a gaggle of troopers from behind as they stroll by darkish metropolis streets holding torches. Phrases on a clean display learn: “One 12 months From Now,” alluding to the movie’s launch in July 2026. One other lengthy shot exhibits a person in armor, presumably Odysseus, wielding his sword as he enters a cave, adopted by different troopers. Excessive of the visuals, Jon’s character continues: “Some say he’s wealthy, or some say he’s poor. Some say he perished. Some say he’s imprisoned. What say you?” Telemachus replies, “Imprisoned?”
“What sort of jail? Good, outdated man like that,” Jon’s character scoffs earlier than we get a foreboding shot of Odysseus stranded at sea, mendacity on some scraps of wooden in the midst of the darkish ocean. “The Odyssey” and “17. 07. 26” seem on display one after one other, and the teaser concludes.
