Coming Attractions: Wrath of the Titans

A decade after his heroic defeat of the monstrous Kraken, Perseus is attempting to live a quieter life as a village fisherman and the sole parent to his 10-year-old son, Helius. Meanwhile, a struggle for supremacy rages between the gods and the Titans. Dangerously weakened by humanity's lack of devotion, the gods are losing control of the imprisoned Titans and their ferocious leader, Kronos, father of the long-ruling brothers Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon. The triumvirate had overthrown their powerful father long ago, leaving him to rot in the gloomy abyss of Tartarus, a dungeon that lies deep within the cavernous underworld.

Perseus cannot ignore his true calling when Hades, along with Zeus's godly son, Ares (Édgar Ramírez), switch loyalty and make a deal with Kronos to capture Zeus. The Titans' strength grows stronger as Zeus's remaining godly powers are siphoned, and hell is unleashed on earth. Enlisting the help of the warrior Queen Andromeda (Rosamund Pike), Poseidon's demigod son, Agenor (Toby Kebbell), and fallen god Hephaestus (Bill Nighy), Perseus bravely embarks on a treacherous quest into the underworld to rescue Zeus, overthrow the Titans and save mankind.

Perseus is back and ready to kick more Titans ass. Warner Brothers just recently released the teaser trailer for "Wrath of the Titans", a two-minute look at the what happens when the Titans get loose of their supernatural prison.  Looks like it has gone all-out to include as much stuff as possible from the dramatic slow-mo of Perseus sheathing weapon to Perseus wrestling moves on a chained CGI beast. Not too mention Marilyn Manson's cover of Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) in the background (terrible choice of song IMHO). The first movie sucked but this looks promising. Overall it's a great trailer but it looks like a video game  to me.

 
Wrath of the Titans will be released on March 30, 2012.
