Visionary director Tarsem Singh (The Cell, The Fall) and producers Gianni Nunnari (300), Mark Canton (300) and Ryan Kavanaugh (The Fighter) unleash an epic tale of treachery, vengeance and destiny in Immortals, a stylish and spectacular 3-D adventure. As a power-mad king razes ancient Greece in search of a legendary weapon, a heroic young villager rises up against him in a thrilling quest as timeless as it is powerful. The brutal and bloodthirsty King Hyperion (Mickey Rourke) and his murderous Heraklion army are rampaging across Greece in search of the long lost Bow of Epirus. With the invincible Bow, the king will be able to overthrow the Gods of Olympus and become the undisputed master of his world. With ruthless efficiency, Hyperion and his legions destroy everything in their wake, and it seems nothing will stop the evil king's mission. As village after village is obliterated, a stonemason named Theseus (Henry Cavill) vows to avenge the death of his mother in one of Hyperion's raids. When Theseus meets the Sybelline Oracle, Phaedra (Freida Pinto), her disturbing visions of the young man's future convince her that he is the key to stopping the destruction. With her help, Theseus assembles a small band of followers and embraces his destiny in a final desperate battle for the future of humanity.

Looks spectacular. I expected no less from Tarsem Singh. "The Cell" and "The Fall" are visually beautiful films and I would suggest checking them out if you have not yet already.

WOW!
I like "The Cell" a lot and never heard about that director after that. This trailer and the one for "The Fall" look absolutely stunning.
Thank you for calling my attention to that.
 
Mickey Rourke is an erratic actor but capable of delivering good performances (see "The Westler"), so we?ll have to wait.
 
Judging from the trailer his type of acting may be suitable for this film.
 
This looks like it could be good. Hope it really will be cause most of the movies I've been expecting have been quite a disappointment.
