Told in the breath-taking visual style of the blockbuster 300, it is a new chapter of the epic saga, which takes action to a new battlefield – the sea.
While King Leonidas and his 300 Spartans have their date with destiny at Thermopylae, another battle against the Persians is brewing, this time at sea. Themistocles, a Greek general, sees the threat posed by the Persian God-King Xerxes. He knows that he must unite all of Greece if he is to stand any chance of repelling the Persian invasion. Even if he accomplishes his mission, Themistocles must still face Artemisia, the ruthless leader of the Persian armada.
The movie premiere will be extensively promoted across TV, print, OOH, multiplex branding and digital media.
