The first set photos of Tom Holland as Telemachus in Christopher Nolan’s upcoming epic, ‘The Odyssey’, are finally here.

‘The Odyssey,’ based on Homer’s legendary epic, chronicles the perilous ten-year journey of Odysseus, the King of Ithaca, as he struggles to return home after the Trojan War. Along the way, he encounters mythical obstacles, including the Cyclops Polyphemus, the Sirens, and the sorceress Circe.
