If it's sci-fi and was directed by Christopher Nolan, it's bound to be a hit. The celebrated director has become the go-to for highly theoretical sci-fi expeditions, with hits like Inception, Tenet, and Oppenheimer. One of his most celebrated films in this genre is the 2014 megahit Interstellar, which has grossed over $773 million worldwide. It is regarded as one of the best sci-fi films of all time thanks to its complex concept and top-tier performances. As Nolan prepares for his next film, The Odyssey, viewers are still revisiting the hit that introduced Timothée Chalamet to the world of blockbusters.
Data from FlixPatrol shows a massive global interest in Interstellar. It is among the top ten movies on many local and international streaming services, including HBO Max, iTunes, and OSN. In the U.S., Interstellar is ranked fifth on Pluto at the time of writing. The movie's success on streaming is a continuation of its winning streak. Despite receiving mixed reviews from critics, Interstellar's ambitious storytelling connected with moviegoers, especially internationally. Produced with an estimated budget of $165 million, it grossed over $680 million during its original theatrical run and over $20 million during the tenth-anniversary re-release.
Interstellar had a recent screening in Los Angeles, and Chalamet was present alongside Nolan. The megastar revealed that the film was his all-time favorite. "Though my role is not enormous in Interstellar, I think I was number 12 on the call sheet, this film came to me at a time in life, in my career, where things were certainly not set yet," the actor said. He played Tom, the teenage son of the main character Cooper (Matthew McConaughey). 12 years later, things are certainly set in Chalamet's career after subsequent critical and box-office hits. His latest movie, Marty Supreme, has broken records for A24, becoming the studio's highest-grossing film to date.
Christopher Nolan's Next Film Comes Out This Year
The Odyssey is a departure from Nolan's expected genre. The film is based on Homer's story of Odysseus, the king of Ithaca, trying to return home after the Trojan War. It is an ambitious endeavor by the director, but he has the experience and cast to pull it off. The fantasy epic has a star-studded cast that includes Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, Zendaya, Tom Holland, Lupita Ny'ongo, Robert Pattinson, Jon Bernthal, Mia Goth, Elliot Page, and more. The Odyssey premieres in theaters on July 17, 2026.
