Eva Green is in talks to star in 300: Battle of Artemisia says THR
Zack Snyder and Kurt Johnstad's script is based on the upcoming graphic-novel sequel by Frank Miller
Green would take the role of Artemisia, the ruthless, gold-covered goddess who persuades king-turned-god Xerxes to amass his army and helps lead the charge against the Greek forces. The giant battle at the center of the film is said to be happening simultaneously with the events of the original "300."
"Warrior" star Joel Edgerton recently turned down the lead role of Themosticles, the general of the Greek army. Rodrigo Santoro, has been cast as Xerxes.
Noam Murro will call action
Mark Canton, Bernie Goldmann, Zack, and his wife Deborah Snyder and Gianni Nunnari will produce the picture
The hope is to start filming 300: Battle of Artemisia in the first quarter of 2012.
