But like that old expression says: That which does not kill us makes us write strongly-worded listicles.

The battle between the 2014 Hercules films continues today with the debut of the trailer for Renny Harlin's upcoming 'Hercules: The Legend Begins,' starring 'Twilight' star Kellan Lutz as the legendary Greek hero. The first trailer is, as we imagined, packed with plenty of shots that call to mind Zack Snyder's '300,' which has become the blueprint for films that involve Greek myth and war.  Read M

Kellan Lutz made a name for himself by playing the chiseled vampire in 'The Twilight Saga,' but now he's ready to unleash his new character, that of legendary strongman Hercules in 'Hercules: The Legend Begins.'

Just when you thought Brett Ratner's 'Hercules' starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson was the only Hercules movie out on the market, in steps Renny Harlin who's found his own Grecian strongman in Kellan Lutz for a rival big-budget flick. It makes sense if you think about it -- what better way to attract a huge audience than with a shirtless 'Twilight' heartthrob?
