Travis Scott debuts in Christopher Nolan's 'The Odyssey' TV teaser

Rapper Travis Scott appears in new TV teaser for Christopher Nolan's epic film 'The Odyssey,' starring Matt Damon and Tom Holland.

"His voice became the final piece of a yearlong puzzle. - Christopher Nolan"

Los Angeles, January 26

Amid the growing buzz surrounding Christopher Nolan's much-awaited 'The Odyssey', a brand new teaser has caught the internet's attention following the debut of rapper, singer, and songwriter Travis Scott. A TV teaser was recently aired during the broadcast of the NFL AFC Championship match, allowing fans to have a look at Travis Scott in the upcoming Greek epic.

In visuals from the teaser, Scott could be seen standing on the top of a table and demanding the attention of a group of soldiers. The clip also features Tom Holland's Telemachus and Jon Bernthal's Menelaus, as per Variety.

The teaser featuring the 10-time Grammy nominee quickly went viral on social media, leaving them highly excited.

Notably, this is not the first time that Travis Scott and Christopher Nolan have come together for a collaboration. The rapper previously recorded the song 'The Plan' for Nolan's 2020 film 'Tenet'.

"His voice became the final piece of a yearlong puzzle. His insights into the musical and narrative mechanism [composer] Ludwig Goransson and I were building were immediate, insightful and profound," Nolan said in an interview, as quoted by Variety.

Earlier in December 2025, the makers unveiled the first trailer of 'The Odyssey', following the Greek hero Odysseus, played by Matt Damon, as he travels the long and winding path back home after the Trojan War.

The trailer shows Odysseus getting shipwrecked along with his army and making his way back home during a treacherous journey.

He and his soldiers are also seen inside the infamous Trojan horse, which was previously teased in a six-minute clip screened before Imax 70mm showings of "Sinners" and "One Battle After Another."

Odysseus walks across land, sails by sea, and treks through caves, including one where an ominously large beast appears in the shadows. There are also brief shots of Holland as Odysseus' son Telemachus and Hathaway as Penelope, Odysseus' wife.

Damon stars alongside Anne Hathaway, Zendaya, Tom Holland, Lupita Nyong'o, Charlize Theron, Mia Goth, Benny Safdie, Jon Bernthal, John Leguizamo, and more.

In addition to directing, Nolan wrote the script and produced the film alongside his wife, Emma Thomas.

Wow! The combination of Nolan's vision and a star-studded cast including our own Zendaya (so proud!) is epic. Travis Scott's involvement is unexpected but exciting. Can't wait for this visual spectacle!

First 'Tenet', now this. Nolan clearly sees something in Scott's music that fits his complex narratives. The teaser during the NFL game is a smart move for global hype. December 2025 feels so far away!

As someone who studied The Odyssey in college, I'm thrilled to see Nolan's take. Matt Damon as Odysseus is perfect casting. Hope they do justice to the original epic's depth.

The cast list is insane! Nolan always delivers. But releasing a teaser now for a late 2025 film? That's a long wait, yaar. The marketing has started very early.

Interesting to see global pop culture blending mythology. We have our own epic films like Baahubali and now Hollywood is going all in on The Odyssey. The cross-cultural appeal of these stories is timeless.
