The film, a sequel to Zack Snyder's, 300 (in turn based on
Frank Miller's 1998 comic book miniseries), will tell, in part, the story of
Greek General Themistocles, who lead Athens against Persian invaders in a
battle that played out simultaneously with the Battle of Thermopylae (depicted
in the first film).
ComingSoon.net spoke with the film's producers last month
and got an update on the status of the quasi-sequel.
"We have to say that Zack Snyder and Kurt Johnstad, his
writing partner, have killed it," said Mark Canton of the screenplay. "They've
done a tremendous job making a highly intelligent, epic story that will stand
on its own. But it's not a conventional sequel and, for what we do, that's what
you hope and pray for. That you can be original and authentic at the same time."
Green, best known for her role as Vesper Lynd in the James
Bond film, Casino Royale, which saw
Daniel Craig make his debut as Bond.
