Watch: Henry Cavill gets a workout in new trailer for Tarsem Singh's 'Immortals'
Mickey Rourke, Luke Evans, Freida Pinto co-star in mythological action film
Relativity Media has released an eye-popping new trailer for Tarsem Singh's upcoming mythological action film "Immortals."
In Ancient Greece, when the Titan Hyperion (Mickey Rourke) declares war on humankind, the Olympian gods choose the half-man/half-god Theseus (Henry Cavill) to defend the world.
Singh ("The Cell," "The Fall") has a knack for visuals, and it should be fun to see him apply it to bone-crunching action. However, the CG-heavy virtual sets, the muscle-bound heroes, the slo-mo battles and the Ancient Grecian setting seen in the trailer won't do much to dispel criticisms that this is just a "300" clone (and it's from the same producers).
Luke Evans (who'll be seen in "The Hobbit"), Freida Pinto ("Slumdog Millionaire") and Rourke ("The Wrestler") co-star.
The film opens nationwide in 3D and 2D November 11.
Check out the film's character posters here.
