In the wake of 300 and the recent Clash of the Titans movie, here is the Mickey Rourke pic 'Immortals', the plot of which, according to the Wikiped, is:
"Years after the Titanomachy, the Titan Hyperion (Mickey Rourke) declares war on humanity. He searches for the Epirus Bow, a legendary weapon created by the war god Ares, which will allow him to free the rest of the Titans from Tartarus and take revenge on the Olympians who brought about their downfall. In accordance with ancient laws, the gods are unable to take a side in the war between Hyperion and humanity. It is left to a peasant named Theseus (Henry Cavill), chosen by Zeus (Luke Evans) and accompanied by the priestess Phaedra (Freida Pinto) and a slave (Stephen Dorff), to protect his homeland and save the gods."
Wait, I thought that Theseus was a prince of Athens or something? Eh. Not the first time a movie based on Greek myths has gotten the content wrong, and I doubt that it'll be the last.
