Nolan confirms real dolphins, not CGI, featured in 'The Odyssey' sequence
Director Christopher Nolan highlighted a specific moment from his latest epic, 'The Odyssey', that he takes great pride in. He shared that a pod of bottlenose dolphins native to Scotland's Moray Firth unexpectedly swam next to the vessel during production. Nolan noted, "A lot of people assume those dolphins are CGI, but they're not. It's all for real."
