Samantha Morton calls her brief but pivotal 'The Odyssey' role a 'rebirth'

Samantha Morton might not have a lot of screen time in Christopher Nolan's 'The Odyssey', but she makes every second count. Variety reports her portrayal of the sorcerer Circe is a searing, ten-minute sequence that commandeers the entire film.

The actress herself described the experience as feeling 'like a rebirth', according to the outlet. In the epic, her character famously turns Odysseus's men into swine during a richly textured performance.
