Red Tide Rolls in New ‘300: Rise of an Empire’ Poster

Last night Warner Bros. premiered the following new poster for Noam Murro‘s 300: Rise of an Empire, which won’t hit theaters until March 7, 2014, but I’m sure the crowds at San Diego’s Comic Con in July will be getting a first look at the sure-to-be-bloody sequel.

Seven years after Zack Snyder‘s original film surprised everyone at the box-office, WB is hoping to find lighting in a bottle twice. Good luck.

Based on Frank Miller’s latest graphic novel “Xerxes” and told in the same visual style of Snyder’s film, Rise of an Empire is said to run parallel to the 2007 feature, following the action at sea as Greek general Themistokles (Sullivan Stapleton) attempts to unite all of Greece as he takes on the massive invading Persian forces led by mortal-turned-god Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro), and Artemesia (Eva Green), vengeful commander of the Persian navy.

Check out the new poster below.
