Elliot Page As ACHILLES in the Odyssey?! We’ve Finally Got Answers..

A little while ago, I made a video discussing one of the strangest rumours surrounding Christopher Nolan’s upcoming Odyssey movie: the idea that Elliot Page might be playing Achilles. The reason of course that rumour generated so much discussion is pretty obvious… Achilles is arguably the most famous warrior in all of Greek mythology, the central figure of the Iliad, the son of a goddess, the greatest fighter among the Achaeans, and a character who has been visually and symbolically defined for nearly three thousand years. So when people started speculating that PAGE might be playing Achilles, the internet immediately started arguing about whether that casting made any sense (spoiler: it didn’t), what Achilles was actually supposed to represent, and how closely modern adaptations should stay to the mythological image of these ancient characters. Anyway..We've got an update.
