The butthurt on the political right over Nolan's casting choices for the forthcoming Odyssey movie is telling.

First, there is no historical record that characters like Achilles or Helen of Troy actually existed. They are fictional people.

Second, it's a movie that most of the complainers wouldn't go see regardless of the casting.

Third, the world is on fire and sliding into fascism. Find something more important to bitch about.

Do people who are losing their absolute shit over Elliot Page being Achilles "just because of accuracy" know that in mythology Achilles was raised disguised as a girl among women to avoid going to war?...
