300_banner The testosterone-fuelled 300 drew audiences in the hundreds of thousands, and Hollywood isn’t about to pass up on following up one of its poster-boys for the highly impressionable male audiences. Rumors of a 300 sequel have been a long time in the coming, but Zack Snyder finally set everything in stone when he was out doing promotion for the upcoming Watchmen DVD and Blu-ray release.

“I know for a fact that Frank [Miller] is writing right now,” said the director. “[He's] drawing away and seems to be knee-deep in it. I think he’s going to head back to Greece again and do another reconnaissance.”

Snyder doesn’t expect much to change from the first film, though the budget will be kept more in check this time as they will be using the same technology.

“We’re going to see Athens and the Aegean and other places,” he detailed. “There would be an opportunity for bigger visions, though I’d hope for the same aesthetic. The tech we used for ‘300′ was not a revolution. It’s basically what the weatherman has.”
