Immortals trailer released

The first trailer for Tarsem Singh’s Immortals has finally gone online after its debut at WonderCon a few weeks ago. A sprawling, sandy epic in the vein of Clash Of The Titans, it follows the bloodthirsty King Hyperion (Mickey Rourke) who brings ancient Greece to its knees in his search for a mythic weapon. Standing in his way is stonemason Theseus (Henry Cavill), whose mother is killed by one of Hyperion’s guards, and who finds the mythic weapon – a bow – himself, and uses it in a mission to destroy Hyperion.

Oh, and if you think that magic bow looks familiar, remember Hank the Ranger from ’80s toon Dungeons & Dragons?

Tarsem Singh signs on for Snow White Dark fairytale revival Brothers Grimm: Snow White has nabbed itself a director in the form of Tarsem Singh. Clearly, studio Relativity are looking for something visually arresting with their production, and with Singh having stirred up some fittingly dark imagery in The Cell and The Fall, we imagine they’ll get it – in spades. The director is coming off the back of Immortals (pictured), a sandy epic starring Mickey Rourke and Henry Cavill that looks set to dwarf this year’s Clash Of The Titans in scale and ambition.
