Mann


Speaking of whom - a missed opportunity of Hollywood was missing the Gates of Fire (another story of Thermopylae) - Mann was going to direct, Clooney and Willis were going to be the leads (they never decided who would have been Leonidas and who would have been Xerxes). The story is much truer to fact than the fantasy story 300 - and while I enjoyed 300, a realistic Gates of Fire adaptation, done with quality filmmakers and a big budget could have been lights out.

But, Mann could have nailed the cinematography and overall direction.

What is the story behind the production, or lack of, with Gates of Fire?? Is it still possibly in the works? When was this?

Sounds amazing and I hadn't heard of this before
