300: The Movie

Based on the epic graphic novel by Frank Miller, 300 is a ferocious retelling of the ancient Battle of Thermopylae in which King Leonidas (Gerard Butler) and 300 Spartans fought to the death against Xerxes and his massive Persian army. Facing insurmountable odds, their valor and sacrifice inspire all of Greece to unite against their Persian enemy, drawing a line in the sand for democracy. The film brings Miller’s (Sin City) acclaimed graphic novel to life by combining live action with virtual backgrounds that capture his distinct vision of this ancient historic tale.

Wahoo! I heard of plans to make a film based on the 300 graphic novel, but nothing concrete so far, until now. This is going to be my most anticipated movie.

I really love the subject of the Battle of Thermopylae, and Frank Miller's work on Sin City. So imagine how much joy when I found out both of them were combined in the graphic novel 300, and now there's going to be a movie based on it.

Haven't managed to get my hands on the graphic novel though.
