Robert Pattinson Talks ‘The Odyssey’ and Playing a Villain


This video features an interview with actor Robert Pattinson discussing his role in Christopher Nolan's film, The Odyssey (0:10). Here are the key highlights from the conversation:

  • Role and Preparation: Pattinson plays the villain Antinous, a suitor attempting to claim Odysseus's throne (1:02). He shares that he initially struggled with imposter syndrome when offered the part but expresses total commitment to working with Nolan again (0:45, 4:05).
  • Modern Adaptation: The film features a creative, modern twist by having the characters use American accents and contemporary vocabulary—such as saying "dad" instead of "father"—to make the historical figures feel more relatable (2:18-2:56).
  • Character Development: Pattinson jokingly recalls his unconventional ideas for his character's wardrobe, including a request for "cheetah underpants" to reflect Antinous's sensuous nature, a concept that the wardrobe department ultimately declined (3:15-3:45).
  • Challenging Shoot: Reflecting on the production in Sicily, Pattinson admits he initially underestimated the intensity of the shoot, expecting a holiday-like experience, but quickly realized the demanding nature of Christopher Nolan's filmmaking (4:17-4:40).
