I mean, Achilles dies at the end of The Illiad, so he's not even IN The Odyssey, if we want to be accurate.
(Don't get me wrong - I'm 100% supportive of this casting, just pointing out more of the neverending supply of bullshit spewed from the mouths of people disguising prejudice and hate with a desire for "accuracy".)

@cocaine_owlbear@retro.pizza @TarkabarkaHolgy@ohai.social But he is in the Odyssey? Yeah he's dead, but Odysseus goes to the underworld and talks to him. https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.01.0136%3Abook%3D11%3Acard%3D440
