“It takes more than a good physique to portray the most legendary, mythological personality in history — and Kellan has exactly that, personality,” Harlin said. “He’s not afraid to explore the strengths and vulnerabilities of the character, and he impressed me with his passion and heart.”
The director has previously said that this version of the character will be more akin to the Ridley Scott film Gladiator than “flying horses.”
From a script written by Sean Hood and Hanna Weg, Hercules 3D is targeting a March 2014 release.
