“300: Battle of Artemisia” Casts It’s Leading Man

5 years ago, Gerard Butler declared “THIS IS SPARTA!”. And for 5 years, we’ve been anxiously waiting more graphic, bloody, awesome Spartan ass kicking. And now, it finally seems like the sequel, “300: Battle of Artemisia” is on its way. Eva Green was recently rumoured to play the titular queen, and now it seems that Sullivan Stapleton has been cast in the lead male role, but what that role is remains a mystery. Some believe that he will play Themistocles, the leader of the the Greeks who rebel against Xerxes, the ‘god-king’ from the first film. But sites like Deadline are reporting he will play Xerxes himself, which makes no sense, cause the guy who played Xerxes in “300” was like 8 feet tall and way different looking, so I’m betting on him playing Themistocles.
