The race for “War of the Gods” and “Clash of the Titans,” two rival projects set up at Relativity and Warners, is quickening.
Both are close to casting their leads, with “Stardust” topliner Henry Cavill set to star in “Gods” and “Terminator Salvation” star Sam Worthington in negotiations to climb aboard “Titans,” which Thunder Road is producing and Legendary Pictures is co-producing.”
In addition, the projects have set start dates. “Gods” would seem to have the edge — it’s tentatively planned for a February shoot, while production on “Titans” is slated to begin in April.
Both are sub-$100 million projects, though the budget for “Gods,” at approximately $85 million, is believed to be higher than “Titans,” which is closer to the $70 million range.
