Then they will fight in the shade — again!

October 2nd, 2008

Director Zack Snyder finally has provided some details of the long-rumored, and previously reported, sequel to 300. Yes, the movie where they all die in the end.

At last night’s Watchmen media event, IESB sidled up to Snyder, who confirmed he’s waiting for Frank Miller to finish the graphic novel on which the movie will be based.

Snyder said the sequel will take place between the Battle of Thermopylae and the Battle of Plataea, the final major conflict in the Greco-Persian Wars. (Spoiler alert: The Greeks won.) There’s about a one-year gap between the two battles.

    I hope Frank’s sequel to 300 isn’t as awful as his sequel to TDK.

    Dang. Beat me to it.

  3. Mike Thompson Says:

    Neat! Looking forward to the sequel.

    Ughhhhhhhhhhh.

  5. Russell Burlingame Says:

    Miller seems hell-bent on destroying the credibility he has left in the comics industry. Oh, well, at least he’s making a few bucks along the way.

  6. Joshua Says:

    I enjoyed 300, but this is the epitome of an unnecessary sequel. Why does everything good have to spawn?

    This is to funny,Frank Millar IS George Lucas!
