Dark Horse Comics has already announced that “Xerxes”, graphic novel by Frank Miller prequel of “300”, will become a movie, directed by Zack Snyder too.

The novel is ready to be published and the cover has been spread out last month.

Frank Miller’s story is set about 10 years before “300”, starting from the Battle of Marathon, with Temistocles, leader of the Marine Army, as the protagonist of the plot, as the Leonida’s nemesis.
Snyder told to the media he’ll start working on “Xerxes” as soon as he’ll finish working on the “Superman” reboot, and that probably the main role will be given to Rodrigo Santoro, the Brazilian actor already in “300”.

More informations to be announced.
