It was way back in June when we saw the first look at The Beast Master (above) in Tarsem Singh’s colossal Gods-doing-battle flick IMMORTALS, starring Mickey Rourke and Isabel Lucas (below). With such a long absence, we can only assume distributors were scared shitless of Rourke with a dreaded goatee. That is, until now!
That’s right y’all, word is Relativity Media has acquired North American distro-rights to the film, with plans to release the thing wide on November 11th (or 11/11/11). Universal will handle all international releasing for the epic 3D actioner.
Also starring Stephen Dorff, John Hurt, Henry Cavill, Kellan Lutz, Freida Pinto, Luke Evans, Stephen McHattie and Alan Van Sprang – IMMORTALS sees:
A purported bastard who retains an allegiance to his mother despite the fact that he longs to join the quest of a king. He is battling demons in ancient Greece and later embarks on a grail of discovery that has him finding he is the king’s son and also fated to become his country’s greatest hero as he leads the successful war against long-imprisoned Titans who are hoping to use the demons to restore their power.
