"300", Frank Miller's multi-acclaimed graphic novel about the Battle of Thermopylae in which 300 Spartans held off an army of one million Persian warriors in a narrow gorge, has been languishing over at Warners for a while.
Now, AICN reprots that "Dawn of the Dead" remake director Zach Snyder is signed up to helm the project and plans to shoot it, like Robert Rodriguez did for "Sin City", as a near shot for panel recreation of the book.
The budget stands at around $60 million and will be shot entirely in-studio in Vancouver. Shooting is scheduled to begin this Fall.
Thanks to 'Patrick'.
