He...Is...Themistocles


And we have us a new Greek warrior.

While Joel Edgerton had been rumored to be in the running to play Themistocles, the famed archon and general who led the Greeks to victory against invading Persians in 480 BCE, in the 300 follow-up, Battle for Artemisia, the role has gone to Sullivan Stapleton.

I know what some of you are thinking: Who?

Well, if you’ve been watching Cinemax’s Strike Back then you know who this guy is (and, really, you should’ve – it’s some intense, good stuff).

Eva Green will co-star alongside Stapleton, as the all-important Artemisia.
