The harrowing trip back to Ithaca is fraught with storms, monsters and plenty of twists as Odysseus is plagued by memories of the Trojan War and visions of the goddess Athena (played by Zendaya).<\/p>\n<p>\n\tMeanwhile back in Ithaca, Anne Hathaway plays Odysseus\u2019 wife Penelope, who\u2019s trying to keep the peace in her home and must fend off a horde of would-be suitors with the help of her son Telemachus, played by Tom Holland.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe supporting cast is a who\u2019s who of Hollywood stars, including several of Nolan\u2019s past collaborators like Robert Pattinson, Elliot Page, Benny Safdie and Himesh Patel, plus Jon Bernthal, Charlize Theron, John Leguizamo, Lupita Nyong\u2019o and more. <\/p>\n<p>\n\tHere is a breakdown of the key characters and the actors who play gods, monsters and men:<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<article>\n<h2>Odysseus (Matt Damon)<\/h2>\n<p><!-- do not apply CSS styles to this element! --><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>\n\tMatt Damon (\u201cGood Will Hunting,\u201d \u201cThe Martian\u201d) stars as the eponymous Odysseus. Homer\u2019s epic follows the aftermath of the Trojan war as Odysseus and his men attempt to return home to Ithaca. Along the way, he encounters a full cast of Greek gods and monsters, including goddess of wisdom and war Athena (Zendaya), the sorceress Circe (Samantha Morton), sea nymph Calypso (Charlize Theron) and cyclops Polyphemus (Bill Irwin). This is Damon\u2019s third collaboration with Christopher Nolan, after \u201cInterstellar\u201d and \u201cOppenheimer,\u201d but his first as the central character.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<article>\n<h2>Telemachus (Tom Holland)<\/h2>\n<p><!-- do not apply CSS styles to this element! --><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>\n\tTom Holland is Telemachus, the son Odysseus barely knew before leaving for Troy. Now almost of age, Telemachus is conflicted: Does he believe his mother Penelope that his father, who he so desperately wants to know, is still alive and coming home to claim his throne? Or, does he listen to the travelers who have heard no news of Odysseus and attempt to ascend to the throne of Ithaca himself to protect his mother from the scoundrel suitors? Holland also stars alongside fellow \u201cThe Odyssey\u201d cast members Zendaya (Athena) and Jon Bernthal (Menelaus) in \u201cSpider-Man: Brand New Day,\u201d which hits theaters July 31.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<article>\n<h2>Penelope (Anne Hathaway)<\/h2>\n<p><!-- do not apply CSS styles to this element! --><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>\n\tThe steadfast queen of Ithaca is played by Anne Hathaway. As she waits for Odysseus to return from Troy, she fends off the increasingly rabid suitors invoking Zeus\u2019 law of hospitality to gorge themselves on the palace\u2019s food and wine and force her to choose one of them as her husband. Hathaway\u2019s film credits include \u201cThe Devil Wears Prada\u201d and previous Nolan collaborations \u201cThe Dark Knight Rises\u201d and \u201cInterstellar.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<article>\n<h2>Antinous (Robert Pattinson)<\/h2>\n<p><!-- do not apply CSS styles to this element! --><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>\n\tRobert Pattinson is the conniving suitor Antinous, who plots for control of Ithaca in Odysseus\u2019s absence. He has an affair with Melantho, mocks Eumaeus, threatens Telemachus and generally debauches the palace in his attempt to win Penelope\u2019s hand. Pattinson\u2019s other film credits include \u201cThe Batman,\u201d \u201cThe Drama\u201d and Nolan\u2019s \u201cTenet.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<article>\n<h2>Athena (Zendaya)<\/h2>\n<p><!-- do not apply CSS styles to this element! --><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>\n\tZendaya stars as the goddess of wisdom Athena. Also the goddess of strategic warfare, Athena opposes the lawless actions the soldiers exhibited during the Battle of Troy and frequently visits Odysseus on his journey home to remind him of the cruelty, which goes against Zeus\u2019 law. The actress got her start on Disney Channel and quickly rose to fame in HBO\u2019s \u201cEuphoria,\u201d which earned her two Emmys and a third nomination for the upcoming award show.

While he believed he\u2019d be welcomed home as a hero, his wife, Clytemnestra, had other plans (and a desire for vengeance) in store. Safdie previously directed \u201cDaddy Longlengs\u201d and \u201cUncut Gems\u201d with his brother, and he was also featured in Paul Thomas Anderson\u2019s \u201cLicorice Pizza.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<article>\n<h2>Menelaus (Jon Bernthal)<\/h2>\n<p><!-- do not apply CSS styles to this element! --><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>\n\tThe king of Sparta is played by Jon Bernthal.

And as Clytemnestra, Nyong\u2019o is Helen\u2019s sister and wife of Agamemnon, the king of Mycenae who commanded the Greek army during the Trojan War. Translations again differ on the level of her involvement, but Clytemnestra plays a role in her husband\u2019s fate after his triumphant return. Nyong\u2019o is an Academy Award-winner for her role in \u201c12 Years a Slave.\u201d Her other credits include \u201cBlack Panther\u201d and \u201cUs,\u201d where she also plays a dual role.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<article>\n<h2>Sinon (Elliot Page)<\/h2>\n<p><!-- do not apply CSS styles to this element! --><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>\n\tElliot Page reunites with Nolan after starring in \u201cInception\u201d back in 2010 alongside Cillian Murphy and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
