It may not be much, but it appears as though two of the stars of Zack Snyder’s 300 may in fact be back for its sequel.

Entitled 300: Battle Of Artemisia, producer Bernie Goldmann told Movies.com that there is a pair of roles set in place in the film for its original stars, Lena Heady and Gerard Butler. The two starred in the original as the husband and wife who spearhead the film’s narrative, which was both surrounded by a true story (based on the Frank Miller graphic novel), but never worried about expanding a story or facts to make it more, well, cinematic.

300: Battle Of Artemisia is set for a release come 2013, and while I wasn’t a huge fan of the original film, I do have some hopes for this thing. I think that the pure action narrative is fun and entertaining, but it’s also not truly my cup of tea. This however could really change that. What do you think?
