[00:00] - Homer Simpson. - I am Tom Holland. - I'm Robert Pattinson. the most searched questions about "The Odyssey."
[00:13] [dial-up internet buzzing] [upbeat music] - It's very tough. - 20 years. - 20 years.
[00:28] - "How many men does Scylla kill?" Six, seven. "Is Calypso a monster?"
[00:40] - No. - Okay. "What is Scylla?" Charybdis is the whirlpool
[00:53] that comes down and takes six of my crewmates. that I don't understand how you did that. and Chris had on one side jet skis
[01:09] to really create a small whirlpool of water as a guide. George Cottle did six ratchets on that boat.
[01:25] he rigged a ratchet system and pulled stunt guys He did six ratchets and he did it after lunch. - Oh, George. - George Coddle.
[01:40] No, because she's married to me. - "Was Odysseus faithful to Penelope?" - Uh.
[01:53] - No, no, no, no, no, no. - Charlize. [cast laughing] - You're really trying to make this work, bro.
[02:07] You're such bad news. Seven years, but don't worry about it. for seven years. - For seven years.
[02:20] Absolutely terribly. - Thank you. you just get too big for your boots. - But that's not the question.
[02:33] - It wasn't very nice the way you lifted him. - The dog was actually quite scary. - "Why does Odysseus disguise himself as a beggar?"
[02:45] - And he's smart. - Ask Brad Pitt. [Anne laughing] - Pretty damn tall.
[02:59] Everything in camera, and a whole team of doubles and it was thrilling to watch those stunt performers work
[03:15] again, do as little CG as possible. things to pronounce in all of this experience. - "Why doesn't Antinous want to kill Telemachus?"
[03:31] Moving on swiftly. - Well, Chris wrote a beautiful monologue and Odysseus goes into detail
[03:45] and you can see that on IMAX on July 17th. - Guys got to get home. - Yeah. - Aw. - Aw.
[03:59] but Eumaeus is known in literature so I would have to say Penelope is his best friend. - "Why does Calypso keep Odysseus?"
[04:14] [Anne laughing] "Why does Circe turn Odysseus's men into pigs?" and terrifying and all done in camera.
[04:30] but her rationale is that she fears for her safety She's just revealing who they truly are.
[04:42] - Yeah. [cast laughing] - Love. - Same answer, no?
[04:54] - She's waiting for Telemachus to get older. - Got my eye on that one. Ew, ew.
[05:07] - "How old is Telemachus in 'The Odyssey?'" Because if I'm away 20 years-- [cast laughing]
[05:20] and I come back 20 years later, are you 22? It's very easy to figure this out. - Yeah, I don't know where I got that from.
[05:35] and you kind of age in the movies. 'cause I think I realized a major flaw in my performance. Well, that's because I, yeah, blind his son.
[05:50] That answer's been around for 3,000 years, so all right. - Because his wife killed him [Robert laughing] - I guess.
[06:05] "Was Odysseus responsible for the Trojan horse?" - Yes, yes, yes. I say yes too. - Because he's passing the Sirens.
[06:19] but doesn't wanna jump off the boat. That's an important part of the story. - "What does Telemachus learn from Menelaus?"
[06:33] - That's exactly what he learns. - He's looking for directions. "Why does Athena choose Odysseus?"
[06:47] without giving things away or does Odysseus choose Athena? - I like that. - That's all we can say.
[07:02] - Sorry, guys. - Sorry, guys. - Let's do it fast. - Greece. - Los Angeles. - Los Angeles.
[07:14] - I haven't said any. There! Ooo! - Oh, you almost got us. it's set up by Penelope to find a--
[07:27] To kick your ass out of my castle. I think 2700 BC. "Why does Antinous underestimate Odysseus?"
[07:39] - "Is Circe a witch?" - She is a demigoddess, yes. - Witchy vibes.
[07:52] - She's a witchy demigoddess. Well, the underworld is full of Shades - "How does Penelope test Odysseus?"
[08:05] - With the bow. With the bow that only he could string. "The Odyssey" is a sequel to "The Iliad," - "How does Athena help Odysseus in 'The Odyssey?'"
[08:20] "What happens after the Trojan War?" - We're not talking about Trojan War II. because it's about the guys trying to get home.
[08:34] - Well, he's both, - "Are the Sirens mermaids?" - "Who are Penelope's suitors?"
[08:47] - "Does Calypso love Odysseus?" - "What happens after Odysseus returns home?" It's pretty good.
[09:01] - All right. - Well, in our film, not only Agamemnon, but but also Sinon. - "How does Telemachus change throughout 'The Odyssey?'"
[09:16] "Why didn't Telemachus know his father?" - "Who are the gods that help or hinder Odysseus?" - Well, there's Zeus, there's Poseidon, there's Athena,
[09:31] - Doesn't Zeus help you by, like, punishing you so badly - Yeah, makes a deal with Poseidon. but I'm under Zeus's protection.
[09:45] No. - That's what she told me. "Why does Antinous want Odysseus dead?" that he would like my throne and my wife.
[09:58] - "Why does Athena protect Penelope?" and I think Athena's a big fan of our family. and that we're trying to do good
[10:11] - "Is Odysseus a hero or an antihero?" - That was a lot of questions. the press has asked us for the last three days.
[10:26] - That was fun. and hopefully we'll see you at "The Odyssey." [dial-up internet buzzing] [upbeat music]
