"Greek myths haven't done as well, but there's clearly an audience to be found. Sam Worthington's portrayal of Perseus in Warner's remake of Clash of the Titans and sequel Wrath of the Titans has earned about $800 million worldwide on a $275 million two-film production budget."
"Zack Snyder's 300, based on the Frank Miller-written graphic novel about the Battle of Thermopylae, earned $465 million for Warner on a much smaller budget: $65 million, according to Box Office Mojo..."
