Universal Pictures Denies Unpaid Viking Ship Repairs on Nolan’s ‘The Odyssey’

Universal Pictures has rejected claims that it failed to cover repair costs for the Glad av Gillberga, a replica Viking ship used in Christopher Nolan’s upcoming film. The studio insists all invoices, including those for wear-and-tear, were paid in full. The dispute comes from the Swedish non-profit Värmland Vikingaleden Association, which rented the vessel and says it was only paid the rental fee. Its chairman estimates repairs at around $6,000 and says multiple emails seeking clarification went unanswered. Universal says the matter is a simple misunderstanding and that the production has reached out to resolve it.

The studio's claim that every invoice was covered sounds straightforward, but disputes like this often hide unexpected costs or fine print.

I get why Universal denies missing payments, yet it feels like raising a ship repair row for publicity more than for genuine oversight.
