Titans Indeed

Liam Neeson is going back to work following the death of his wife Natasha Richardson...

He is set while Ralph Fiennes is in negotiations to play warring gods in the "Clash of the Titans" says The Hollywood Reporter.

Neeson is playing Zeus, the wise yet sometimes ill-tempered king of the gods and father of Perseus (Sam Worthington). Laurence Olivier's role in the original.

Fiennes will play Hades, ruler of the underworld who aims to overtake Zeus and rule over all. Hades did not appear in the original film.

The dynamic duo squared off in Schindler's List...I look for greatness again.

Gemma Arterton, Mads Mikkelsen, and Alexa Davalos also star.

Lawrence Kasdan took a crack at the script but Travis Beacham wrote the final version.

Louis Leterrier calls action when production kicks off in the UK later this month.
