Matt Damon’s Trojan Horse Scene Leaks: Marvel Fans on Edge
A leaked prologue from Nolan’s The Odyssey starring Matt Damon has surfaced online, sparking speculation among fans about whether Marvel’s Avengers: Doomsday could be next. Here’s what’s got everyone talking.
Film fans have been buzzing after a five-minute prologue from Christopher Nolan’s upcoming epic, The Odyssey, made its way onto Reddit. The footage features Matt Damon stepping into the shoes of Odysseus, tucked away inside the infamous wooden horse. The opening moments drop viewers right at the gates of Troy, with the massive structure being hauled across the sand, setting the stage for what’s to come.
Speculation Swirls Around Marvel’s Next Big Release
The unexpected leak has left many wondering if Marvel’s much-hyped Avengers: Doomsday could face a similar fate. With plenty of chatter about Robert Downey Jr. taking on the role of Doctor Doom and questions swirling about Chris Evans’ involvement, curiosity is running high. The appetite for any sneak peeks or spoilers is stronger than ever among punters keen for answers.
While the odds of another leak can’t be ruled out, Marvel Studios has a bit of a track record when it comes to keeping things under wraps. They’ve dealt with spoilers before and are generally more prepared for these sorts of mishaps than most. Even with the odd accidental reveal or an actor letting something slip, the studio’s tight security makes it unlikely that a prologue will slip through the cracks before the official release.
Nolan’s Take: Starting at Troy’s End
Christopher Nolan is known for his fondness for non-linear storytelling, and The Odyssey looks set to follow suit. The prologue kicks off with Damon’s Odysseus and his fellow Greeks hidden inside the wooden horse, being dragged to the city’s gates after a failed attempt at victory. The Trojan Horse, of course, was their last shot at turning the tide against the Trojans.
The film draws inspiration from Homer’s classic tale, which follows Odysseus on his long journey back to Ithaca. Nolan’s approach, starting in the thick of the action and then branching out, offers a fresh spin on the well-trodden story. It’s a move that’s sure to get locals and film buffs alike talking.
Release Date and Fan Reactions
With the prologue now out in the wild, anticipation for The Odyssey is only growing. The film is set to hit Australian cinemas on 17 July 2026, and fans are already sharing their thoughts and excitement online. Whether you’re a die-hard Nolan supporter or just keen to see Damon take on a legendary role, there’s plenty to look forward to.
