Seems the Greek Myths are not doing being exploited yet, and that intimidating hulk of a man known as Mickey Rourke has been cast as the evil villain in the new War of the Gods movie.
Rourke has been cast as the villain, King Hyperion and will star opposite Henry Cavill and Freida Pinto.
The story about a Greek mythological battle, follows a young warrior Theseus who leads his men into battle with the immortal Greek gods to defeat evil and the powerful elder gods of the Titans in order to save mankind.
I love the idea of Rourke as a villainous King. He has that presence that makes you think this guy could become such a leader of men and a ruthless presence.
I look forward to seeing what they do with this more now that Rourke is involved.
