Adventures in Odyssey

Adventures in Odyssey

For nearly forty years, Adventures in Odyssey has been the story families listened to together - in the minivan, at bedtime, on Saturday mornings. Now, for the first time, it's a theatrical movie - and it’s the origin story of when the Whittaker family first moved to the town of Odyssey. Set before the stories you’ve heard. No one needs to have listened to a single episode to follow it, and if you've listened to all thousand, this story is new to you. About a family learning that truth and courage are what character is made of.
In the movie theatres 2027!”
