Elon Musk says AI will make "full-length movie of The Odyssey"

After Joe Rogan criticized the online backlash against the diverse cast of Christopher Nolan’s *The Odyssey*—including Lupita Nyong’o and Elliot Page—Elon Musk responded by announcing plans to have his AI tool, Grok Imagine, produce a feature-length film based on Homer’s epic. Musk reportedly alleged the Nolan movie lacked historical accuracy and said his AI-generated version would be faithful to the original art. The announcement has drawn skepticism from industry insiders, who say it appears more like an envious fixation on Nolan’s blockbuster than a serious technological demonstration, according to sources. The dispute highlights ongoing tensions over casting diversity in Hollywood and the growing rivalry between AI content and traditional filmmaking.
