Actor Matt Damon spoke about filming 'The Odyssey'.

On the 12th, tvN's variety program 'You Quiz on the Block' featured Christopher Nolan, director of the film 'The Odyssey', and actor Matt Damon as guests.

That day, when asked if it was difficult, Matt Damon replied, "No," adding, "I never found it difficult. The director is an excellent leader. He is full of confidence and demands perfection from himself and everyone else. He assembles a team of top professionals in each field and expects the highest level of skill, and everyone wants to meet the director's expectations. That's why every work always turns out to be the best."

Yoo Jae-suk responded, "He really seems incredible. I thought it would be tough if I were cast, but I feel proud to act within the director's world."

Next, they asked what Matt Damon meant to Christopher Nolan, and Matt jokingly replied, "An excellent fourth-place candidate."

Christopher Nolan then said, "When he asked if I found it difficult, Matt is a truly remarkable actor whom I trust and rely on. We view the process of making films from very similar perspectives. Given our life stages and career positions, I believe it's an incredible luck that we can do this work now. We worked together with perfect chemistry. During this filming, I don't think anyone could have played Odysseus in place of Matt. He always led by example and constantly infused positive energy, telling everyone 'just do it.' He is the best partner."

Matt Damon replied, "It's really great. Usually, we two don't say such things openly. It's a feeling we both sense without words, and the time we spend working together is always truly enjoyable."

When told that 'The Odyssey' was as difficult as filming seven movies, Matt Damon agreed, saying, "We talked about the role I took on, and (Christopher Nolan) firmly said near the end of our meeting: 'This film will be really tough.' At first, I thought, 'Is it just one or two films?' But he insisted it would be truly difficult, and he perfectly kept his word."

Christopher Nolan added, "I didn't expect it to be this difficult."
