The gods gather in five new posters for Immortals


I feel like there hasn't been nearly enough attention paid to Immortals, Tarsem Singh's upcoming film featuring a war between humans and the Greek gods against the Titans. For a lot of people, it'll be their first chance to see future Superman, Henry Cavill, in action.  For others, it might be their best opportunity to experience the work of Tarsem, the visual master behind such films as The Fall and The Cell. With footage of the film currently being shown at WonderCon(to some acclaim, I might add), expect to start seeing a lot more Immortals before it's release in November.  Hopefully we'll get a teaser trailer soon.  For now, check out these five new posters, featuring Cavill as Theseus, Kellan Lutz(Twilight) as Poseidon, Luke Evans(Tamara Drewe) as Zeus, Isabel Lucas(Daybreakers) as Athena, and Daniel Sharman a Ares.  Unfortunately nothing of Mickey Rourke as Hyperion just yet. 




Years after the Titanomachy, the Titan Hyperion (Mickey Rourke) declares war on humanity. He searches for the Epirus Bow, a legendary weapon created by the war god Ares, which will allow him to free the rest of the Titans from Tartarus and take revenge on the Olympians who brought about their downfall. In accordance with ancient laws, the gods are unable to take a side in the war between Hyperion and humanity. It is left to a peasant named Theseus (Henry Cavill), chosen by Zeus (Luke Evans) and accompanied by the priestess Phaedra (Freida Pinto) and a slave (Stephen Dorff), to protect his homeland and save the gods.
