Anne Hathaway plays Queen Penelope, the wife of Odysseus and mother of Telemachus. Believing Odysseus to be dead after years away from Ithaca, Penelope refuses to remarry despite relentless pressure from her suitors.
This movie marks Hathaway’s third collaboration with Nolan, following The Dark Knight Rises (2012), in which she played Selina Kyle/Catwoman, and Interstellar (2014), where she starred opposite Matthew McConaughey. Speaking recently on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Hathaway joked that while filming The Odyssey she worried, “I hope I didn’t, like, say anything while we were in space.”
The Oscar winner, who earned the Academy Award for best supporting actress for Les Misérables, is also known for The Princess Diaries films, Ella Enchanted, Brokeback Mountain, The Devil Wears Prada and The Devil Wears Prada 2, Get Smart, Bride Wars, Alice in Wonderland, Love & Other Drugs, The Intern, Ocean’s Eight, WeCrashed, The Idea of You and Mother Mary. Later this year, she’ll star in Verity, based on the Colleen Hoover novel and The End of Oak Street, opposite Ewan McGregor.
