Will not watch..

Just imagine a remake of the Zulu wars with Ryan Reynolds as Shaka Zulu.

Holland is boning Zendaya, so they probably came as a package deal looking to generate heat from that. Otherwise, this just looks like the standard "throw a bunch of popular stars together" claptrap that Hollywood put out from time to time. I wouldn't even know it was being made if it wasn't posted here.

Plot question:  Does Matt Damon get Greeked?

Definitely a Package-deal


Holland wouldnt accept it unless they brought in Zendaya as well

wtf would watch that crap?

I would say Zendaya is not a problem as she looks like someone who could at least be from a nearby region.

However, Lupita as Helen of Troy is illogical as Greeks in that time period had no contact with that region of Africa yet. Also, Helen of Troy is described as having fair skin, so definitely not a Nubian.

Another issue is the armour, the characters are wearing fantasy style equipment which might have some slight resemblance to armour 700-800 years later, but even then nowhere accurate.

And then they seem to be using Viking long-ships instead of the more primitive ships they would have used in 1200 BC.

What about Korean Will Yun Lee as a Greek warrior?
