Warner Bros. announced that Louis Leterrier will direct their remake of the classic "Clash of the Titans," with script by Lawrence Kasdan.
Variety says that the project is greenlit now that Leterrier is onboard.
In Clash of the Titans, Perseus, the son of Zeus, must overcome a series of obstacles to save his beloved Princess Andromeda, including cutting off the serpent-tressed head of Medusa, who can turn a man to stone with a single glance.
The original 1981 Clash of the Titans starred Harry Hamlin as Perseus and Laurence Olivier as Zeus but is best remembered for Ray Harryhausen's visual effects that brought to life Medusa, the Kraken and other creatures.
