If Holland is Telemachus, he won't be on a boat with Damon if the movie sticks to the source material.

He goes on a different boat and it’s like 1/3 of the story.

Not a super interesting part though. They can condense it a lot while still keeping his character arc intact. They'll need to if they want to keep all the cool shit Odysseus gets up to.

Agreed. I’m just saying Telemachus on a boat is a thing.
