Zack Snyder Looking to Open 300-Style Films to All Historical Events
I’ve enjoyed the 300 film that have been made. They are incredibly badass, and I absolutely love the visual style of them. I don’t know if we’ll see any more 300 films set in ancient Greece, but even if we don’t, we might see a series of 300-style films that tell the stories of other historical events. At least, that’s what director Zack Snyder is thinking about doing. During an interview with Collider, the filmmaker said:
"We’ve been talking a lot about sort of different incarnations of 300. We’ve been talking about is there a way, possibly, we move out of Ancient Greece and use it as a framing device for other conflicts that happened throughout history. I think I mentioned that we talked about the Revolutionary War version, and we talked about the Alamo, and we’ve talked about there’s a battle in China, a 'Lost Legion' kind of concept, any of those kinds of things are on the table."
I would absolutely love to see Snyder and Warner Bros. do this! You can read about the George Washington project Snyder wants to work on here. Beyond that, though, it would be so cool to see other awesome historical events brought to life in this hyper-visual style. Of course, Snyder could always just make these movies in his own style without the 300 connection, and they would probably still be just as entertaining.
