There a lot of upcoming films that will tackle the subject of Greek mythology but none as anticipated as Tarsem Singh’s War of the Gods. It’s currently in production and Relativity Media sent out a press release letting everyone know that they’ve made a few major changes. War of Gods will now be called Immortals.
Immortals will center on a young warrior named Theseus (played by Henry Cavill) who leads his men into battle with the immortal Greek gods to defeat the evil and powerful elder gods of the Titans in order to save mankind. Mickey Rourke will star as the film’s villain King Hyperion, while Frieda Pinto will play Phaedra, an oracle priestess who aids the young warrior on his quest.
The film will feature plenty of familiar faces in godly roles like Twilight’s Kellan Lutz as Poseidon god of the sea. John Hurt has joined the cast as Zeus who acts as a mentor and teacher to the young warrior Theseus and Australian actress Isabel Lucas will play his daughter Athena, who finds her loyalty tested as the war between the gods and Titans looms. Stephen Dorff also co-stars alongside Luke Evans who played Apollo in Clash of the Titans.

Stephen is featured in the February/March issue of Wonderland magazine. Interviewed from the Beverly Hills Hotel “over one of the restaurant’s famous McCarthy salads, an iced tea, a skim latte, and a cigarette or two”, Dorff chatted about working with Sofia Coppola, and how he’s bracing for his life to change in the next few months.
You can read part of the interview here. The full interview is featured in the magazine. I will be adding scans from the issue soon.
