<p>Tom Holland said in a new interview with GQ Sports that filming Christopher Nolan's "The Odyssey" has been "the job of a lifetime, without a doubt." The "Spider-Man" favorite is leading the ensemble of Nolan's historical epic alongside Matt Damon, who stars as Odysseus. Holland is playing Telemachus, Odysseus' son. The film marks Nolan's highly-anticipated follow-up to his Oscar winner "Oppenheimer."</p>
<p>"It was amazing. The job of a lifetime, without a doubt. The best experience I've had on a film set," Holland said when asked about his experience on "The Odyssey" set. "Incredible. It was exciting. It was different. And I think the movie is going to be unlike anything we've ever seen."</p>

<p>"Working with Chris, getting to know him and Emma [Thomas] was absolutely fantastic. I've never seen someone that can work the way that they do, and there is a reason why they're the best in the business for sure," Holland continued. "To get a front row seat to that and to be a part of the process and to collaborate with a true master of his craft and learn from him was the best experience I've ever had."</p>
<p>Holland and Damon are joined in "The Odyssey" by a huge ensemble cast that includes Anne Hathaway, Zendaya, Lupita Nyong'o, Robert Pattinson, Charlize Theron and Jon Bernthal, among others. The film's first trailer, which features a scene of Holland's Telemachus shedding a tear while asking the whereabouts of his missing father, is now playing exclusively in theaters.</p>
<p>"Matt Damon has always been a hero of mine, Anne Hathaway has always been a hero of mine," Holland told GQ Sports. "So to share scenes with them, to learn from them, to become friends with them, I couldn't have asked for a better job. And I'm so proud of the work I've done. I came to work every day with a real sense of purpose and a point to prove, and I'm so grateful for Chris to have given me that opportunity."</p>
<p>Holland previously told "Good Morning America" that getting the offer from Nolan to star in "The Odyssey" was "the phone call of a lifetime" and "reminiscent of getting the call about 'Spider-Man' 10 years ago. It's an amazing thing for me. I'm super proud and I'm really, really excited."</p>
<p>"The Odyssey" is the first Hollywood tentpole to be shot entirely with Imax cameras. The film is set for release on July 17, 2026 from Universal Pictures.</p>
