Now that Warner Bros is done showing off their new stills for 300 (part I, part II), they have now launched the official site for the film.
Official Site: 300
Based on the epic graphic novel by Frank Miller, 300 is a ferocious retelling of the ancient Battle of Thermopylae in which King Leonidas (Gerard Butler) and 300 Spartans fought to the death against Xerxes and his massive Persian army. Facing insurmountable odds, their valor and sacrifice inspire all of Greece to unite against their Persian enemy, drawing a line in the sand for democracy. The film brings Miller’s (Sin City) acclaimed graphic novel to life by combining live action with virtual backgrounds that capture his distinct vision of this ancient historic tale.
The official site for the film now offers a beautiful front page that comes packed with flash menus taking us to the video journals, a synopsis, stills and downloads such as wallpapers and posters. Not all the options are entirely complete, but hey, it's a work in progress.
300 opens to theatres on March 9th, 2007.
For the video journals, stills, trailers, more stills, posters and movie info, head over to the 300 Movie Page.
Stay tuned for updates.
