First look: Frank Miller's '300'

The website for Warner Bros.’ $60 million film adaptation of Frank Miller’s “300” has gone live, with a blog from director Zack Snyder and some great looking concept art for the pic, which uses the same sort of digital imagery as “Sin City” to mimic the look of Miller’s style. There’s also a “video diary” of the production that includes a look at what the final pic will look like and glimpses of stars Gerard Butler as King Leonidas and Lena Headey as Queen Gorgo.

“300” was Miller’s retelling of the historic battle between the ancient Spartans and the Persians in which 300 Spartans, led by Leonidas, showed the Persian army could be defeated, even at the cost of their own lives. Miller drew each issue of the 1998 Dark Horse comic series with double-page spreads. The book was collected into an oversize hardcover that presented each spread as a single page. The series has never been published in a softcover collection.
