The Odyssey sparks new backlash from MAGA critics over plot point
Jump to contentThank you for registeringPlease refresh the page or navigate to another page on the site to be automatically logged inPlease refresh your browser to be logged inAllNewsSportCultureLifestyleChristopher Nolan's film The Odyssey is facing renewed criticism from right-wing commentators following its theatrical release. Critics are taking issue with a plot point where Odysseus expresses guilt over the sacking of Troy and shows signs of PTSD, labeling it as "woke" and a deviation from the epic's original characterization. Right-wing cultural commentator Peachy Keenan and others on X criticized the portrayal of Odysseus as vulnerable, claiming it reduces him to a "traumatized, not very clever, self-hating boomer." Earlier, the film faced backlash over casting choices, specifically Lupita Nyong’o as Helen of Troy, with Elon Musk and Daily Wire commentator Matt Walsh endorsing claims that the casting was "incoherent."
