EXCLUSIVE: Finishing this fall with The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2, Lionsgate is developing a grand-scale retelling of history’s greatest voyage home, Homer’s The Odyssey.
To accomplish this epic, Lionsgate has enlisted Francis Lawrence to direct, Peter Craig to write and Nina Jacobson to produce. Lawrence directed three of the four Hunger Games films, Craig co-scripted the two installments of Mockingjay, and Jacobson and her Color Force have shepherded the franchise from the very beginning. Lawrence also helmed I Am Legend and Craig co-wrote The Town with Ben Affleck. Lionsgate has put this on a fast track. The plan is to begin production early next year, right after the filmmakers complete promotion of Mockingjay – Part 2, which will be released November 20.

Le péplum - Pop Classics: Top 5 representations of ancient Athens in film and TV. Athens is the most famous city-state in ancient Greece.
The majority of our textual evidence from the Classical period comes from Athens. It was the home of Plato, Sophocles and Thucydides, the birthplace of democracy and philosophy, one of the two states that led a Greek coalition to victory in the Persian Wars. If asked to picture 'ancient Greece' in your mind, chances are the image behind your eyes is that of the Parthenon, the Athenians' beautiful temple to Athena, sitting on top of the Acropolis (the rock it's on) standing guard over the city.
And yet, Athens appears strangely rarely on film and television. Wet, cold, miserable Roman Britain is far better served that hot, sunny, beautiful ancient Athens. Modern Athens shows up every now and again. But when it comes to fictional representations of ancient Athens, the city is bizarrely poorly served. Ancient Roman Women in Film. Posted on 26.
Mar, 2014 by Brittany Britanniae in Roman culture In honor of March being National Women’s History Month, I thought it appropriate to pay respect to those ancient Roman women who have been portrayed (accurately or inaccurately) in film and television. For it is often through television and film that ancient people or historic events pick up popularity amongst modern society.
Moreover, I stand to prove that most ancient women portrayed in film fit the theme “Behind Every Great Man is a Great Woman.” In addition to this idea, their portrayals most often are exaggerated in order to shock or overwhelm audiences of the exotic and foreign nature of the past.

The ancient city of Pompeii has been recreated with astonishing attention to historical accuracy for an epic film about its destruction following the eruption of Vesuvius some 2,000 years ago. Advances in digital technology helped recreate the disaster convincingly and film-makers were also guided experiences of recent tsunamis. British director Paul WS Anderson recruited an army of craftsmen to reproduce every detail, from hand-shaped cobblestones to handmade wall paintings and mosaics, reconstructing buildings with the exact dimensions of those in the actual city. His team spent six years researching Pompeii, imaging the ruins and flying extensively over Vesuvius and other active volcanoes. A vulcanologist and a Roman historian were among the film's advisers.
