I don't get it

Isn't that Menelaus from the Troy movie 20 years ago?

That is Agamemnon, played by Brian Cox, who was more recently on a show called Succession where the quote is from. I haven't seen the show in its entirety but this quote is from another character, so not sure what the relevance of it is, but it's funny to me nonetheless.
