Description： The clip is a reaction meme from Christopher Nolan's 2026 film The Odyssey. Pattinson's Antinous orders a disguised Odysseus away—while occupying Odysseus's own home.
Robert Pattinson shouting “Somebody get these beggars out of here!” became a reaction meme for moments when someone wants more than you're willing to give. It comes from Christopher Nolan's 2026 film The Odyssey, and knowing the scene makes the joke considerably nastier—and funnier.
Who is shouting at whom?
Pattinson plays Antinous, a leading suitor taking over Odysseus's household while the king is away. The suitors are eating his food, courting his wife Penelope, and treating the palace as their own. When Odysseus returns disguised as a beggar, Antinous sneers at the stranger and demands that he be removed.
The wonderful irony: the person being thrown out is the homeowner. The loudest man in the room is effectively a squatter telling the owner to leave. That's a pretty efficient character introduction.
How did the clip become a meme?
The line and a cinema-recorded clip circulated on X in July 2026. Know Your Meme documents reaction posts around July 20, followed by captioned GIFs, green-screen edits and posts using the quote without video. Examples include a payment tablet requesting an extra tip, or the friend who hears you're ordering pizza and immediately requests wings too.
The format is simple: set up a mildly entitled request, then let Antinous respond with an outrageously disproportionate level of disgust. The delivery turns a petty inconvenience into a full-blown palace emergency.
When should you use it?
It works best as a theatrical reaction to nagging or cheeky asks among people who understand the joke. Aiming the insult at people in real hardship changes the meaning, so context matters.
The punchline is that Antinous acts like the ultimate gatekeeper—at a gate that isn't even his.
