This is referencing Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey
FTFY. It’d only be referencing Christopher Nolan’s version if that was some addition he made to the story, which is very much not the case. All his additions are lines attempting to sound historic, but are instead hilariously anachronistic (our age of bronze is collapsing)
It is a picture from Nolan’s Odyssey, but not a reference to it
I haven’t read The Odyssey, so I wouldn’t exactly know all the additions or changes. I did hear that Sinon wasn’t actually in the original text though, so you’re wrong about that at least.
Sinon, a character from Virgil’s recounting of the Trojan War being in the Odyssey. Really, really sounds like trying to make two works of fiction seem like they’re historical in basis. So I’m gonna say that still counts as hilarious anachronism.

I’m pretty sure it’s just a movie, and isn’t trying too hard to make you think it’s historically accurate. I kind of doubt there were giants, cyclopes, witches, lotus flowers that make you forget, and sea monsters. I’m also pretty sure they didn’t speak english back then, but it’d be a little harder to enjoy the movie if you had to read subtitles, which also didn’t exist back then.
Yeah, twisting my “his contribution to this myth is to needlessly try to make it historical feeling, in a ridiculously ahistoric manner” into “this myth now attempts to be perfectly historical to the detriment of the story” is wild, my guy. Good try, though.

This is actually referencing epic: the musical, the odyssey was inspired by that
