300 is adapted from a graphic novel by Frank Miller. Miller had been fascinated with the Battle of Thermopylae ever since he saw Rudolph Maté’s movie The 300 Spartanswhen he was six years old. According to Miller, Richard Egan’s portrayal of King Leonidas changed his perception of the role of a hero. He realized that heroes don’t always succeed, an...
In the original script for 300, the line “This is Sparta!” wasn’t supposed to be yelled. In the comic book, it’s delivered in a stern but calm manner. Gerard Butler tried a few takes in which he delivered the line this way, but it didn’t have much of an impact. He tried one take in which he yelled the line at the top of his voice. Zack Snyder loved...
The dialogue spoken by the Oracle wasn’t scripted. Kelly Craig, the actor playing her, just improvised some gibberish. Zack Snyder was glad that she managed to work the word “Carneia” — the name of one of the great national festivals of Sparta — into the dialogue. The flowing visual effect that appears in the scene in which the Oracle is dancing wa...

When Zack Snyder signed on, he wanted to make it R-rated, and Warner Bros. eventually relented. Studio executives thought that the best-case scenario for 300 would be to match Sin...
300is one of the bloodiest, goriest action movies of the 21st century. However, not an awful lot of fake blood was used during filming. In fact, the whole production only used about two gallons of fake blood. The rest was added digitally during the post-production phase. In real life, every Spartan soldier wore a plume, but in the movie, only Leoni...
Since the script required all the male cast members to be ripped and shirtless in basically every scene, the actors were subjected to a grueling training regime for eight weeks before shooting. The regime was put together by Marc Twight, a record-breaking professional mountain climber. The actors never did the same exercise more than once to preven...
Leonidas’ father bears more than a passing resemblance to him, and that’s because the actor who was hired to play him, Tim Connolly, was also working as Gerard Butler’s stunt double. The younger version of Leonidas, on the other hand, was played by Zack Snyder’s son. RELATED: 5 Things Batfleck Got Right (& 5 It Got Wrong) When the real-life Leonida...

Around the same time that Snyder was developing 300with Warner Bros., Michael Mann was planning an unrelated film about the Battle of Thermopylae that he ended up having to cancel. During pre-production, Snyder bond...
