In fact, Zendaya isn't the worst casting choice in the Odyssey. As we all know, Zendaya on the red carpet and Zendaya on screen are two completely different people. Although she has delivered one stunning look after another on the premiere red carpet, her portrayal of Athena in the film has left audiences less than excited. No matter what role she plays, Zendaya always wears the same frown and blank expression, a perpetual poker face, especially when compared to Isabella Rossellini's Athena in the 1997 version of the Odyssey. Many have commented that Zendaya looks more like Athena's handmaiden than the goddess herself, but Zendaya is far from the worst casting choice, Elliot Page, a transgender actor, was cast as the ancient Greek hero Achilles, sparking outrage online and drawing a flood of transphobia and mockery. The most baffling casting choice, however, goes to Travis Scott, a rapper, crossing over to play an ancient Greek bard. But the biggest controversy surrounds Lupita Nyongo, cast as Helen of Troy, the most beautiful woman in the world. In Homer's epic, Helen is described as the white-armed Spartan queen, whose legendary beauty drew countless heroes and sparked the Trojan War. But Lupita's appearance stands in stark contrast to the original portrayal.
