Roman Warriors

Michael Fassbender (pictured), Dominic West and Olga Kurylenko have joined the cast of Neil Marshall's Roman battle epic Centurion. says The Hollywood Reporter.

Set during the Roman invasion of Britain in AD 117 it tells the story of Quintus Dias, sole survivor of a Pictish raid on a Roman frontier fort, who marches north with General Virilus' legendary Ninth Legion, under orders to wipe the Picts from the face of the earth and destroy their leader Gorlacon..

With genre specific flicks like "The Descent" and "Doomsday" under his belt this sounds like Marshall's biggest step yet....Since Fassbeender and West are both alum of 300 and Punisher: War Zone respectively--they should have no problem with the action stuff

Kurylenko will pretty this up as a former Quantum Of Solace-Bond gal.
