Troilus and Cressida (2026)
Directed by Owen Horsley
“Never meet your heroes”
Drama · 2h 45m
In Troy, young prince Troilus and Cressida are in love. Greece and Troy have been fighting for years with no end in sight ever since Paris abducted Helen. The manufactured glamour of the Trojan war machine is losing its shine, and the Greek camp has declined into an apocalyptic wasteland. What happens when the heroes we worship no longer live up to their mythic narratives?
