My pet theory about The Odyssey is that Nolan was starting to accumulate a reputation in Hollywood as being "the right wing director" and his vandalism of Homer's epic is an attempt to insulate himself from that. Providing his bona fides, if you will.
Gianni Infantino confirmed that FIFA will discuss expanding the men's World Cup to 64 teams after the 2026 tournament, saying every nation should have the chance to dream of playing at football's biggest event. https://t.co/HvBTuagd8h
