Out of the films remaining to be released in 2011 and on top of my most anticipated list is Tarsem Singh’s IMMORTALS. Not quite sure why I am so excited for this, perhaps it is the fact that is looks visually stunning or that it has a top notch cast. I have already started to count down the days; I can’t wait.
If like me you are excited for this one, well I have a really cool treat for you. A new clip has been released from the film and it features Henry Cavill and Mickey Rourke. The scene is intense, and both actors look so great in their roles. This is a must see, and it certainly looks exciting and a good time.
Eons after the Gods won their mythic struggle against the Titans, a new evil threatens the land. Mad with power, King Hyperion (Mickey Rourke) has declared war against humanity. Amassing a bloodthirsty army of soldiers disfigured by his own hand, Hyperion has scorched Greece in search of the legendary Epirus Bow, a weapon of unimaginable power forged in the heavens by Ares. Only he who possesses this bow can unleash the Titans, who have been imprisoned deep within the walls of Mount Tartaros since the dawn of time and thirst for revenge.
In the king’s hands, the bow would rain destruction upon mankind and annihilate the Gods. But ancient law dictates the Gods must not intervene in man’s conflict. They remain powerless to stop Hyperion…until a peasant named Theseus (Henry Cavill) comes forth as their only hope. Secretly chosen by Zeus, Theseus must save his people from Hyperion and his hordes. Rallying a band of fellow outsiders-including visionary priestess Phaedra (Freida Pinto) and cunning slave Stavros (Stephen Dorff)-one hero will lead the uprising, or watch his homeland fall into ruin and his Gods vanish into legend.
Cavill and Rourke will star alongside Luke Evans, Kellan Lutz, Isabel Lucas (below), Freida Pinto, Joseph Morgan and Stephen Dorff. Catch it on November 11!
