Elliot Page Recalls Being Blown Away by THE ODYSSEY Script and Nolan's Direction
The actor also opened up about doing practical stunt work for the Christopher Nolan film.
Elliot Page sat down with Jimmy Fallon on THE TONIGHT SHOW STARRING Jimmy Fallon to talk about joining Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, describing the reaction that hit when the script first landed in hand. Page told Fallon the material left a strong impression from the very first read, giving the studio audience a sense of just how the project came together for the actor.
Much of the conversation centered on what it was like working under Nolan's direction on set, with Page offering details about the director's approach during filming. Page also discussed doing practical stunts for the production, pointing to the physical demands that came with the role rather than relying on effects work after the fact.
The appearance leaned into firsthand set stories, giving viewers a glimpse of the day-to-day experience of shooting a large-scale Nolan production. Page's account of the stunt work added a specific, concrete detail to the conversation, illustrating the hands-on nature of the shoot beyond the script itself.
Page's stop follows other cast members from the film making similar rounds on late night television. Anne Hathaway, Jon Bernthal and Matt Damon recently appeared together on LATE NIGHT WITH Seth Meyers to trade their own behind-the-scenes stories from the same production, also focusing largely on Nolan's direction and the camaraderie built among the cast during filming.
