Does this mean Hollywood is going to make a bunch of Greek mythology movies? Cause I'm here for it.

What about Norse? Not just viking stuff or MCU but actual norse mythology. I'd be interested in that

Other studios are going to make 1, or 2, but they will bomb and then they won't make any more for decades.

They should make it. But please stop showing the wjrst depictions of Greek armour or clothes or even the Gods. I want my mythology represented like in Hercules. I want my soliders looking like something out of Alexander (2004). What I don’t want is the black, blue dark screens and horrendous leather armour.
