After reports speculated whether or not Zack Snyder would be involved with the upcoming 300 TV series, we now have confirmation – and we know it's officially in the works.

"We're just getting ready to dive in and get to work on it. It's super fun, I love the world," Snyder told ComicBook. "And even just in the preliminary meetings we've had talking about, like, 'What if this happened or that happened,' just a lot of it's just really fun to like go, wow, it's a rich standard. It's similar to this [Twilight of the Gods] in a weird way. As far as there's a lot of underpinnings."

The flagship film, based on the 1998 comic book series of the same name, hit theaters in 2007 and grossed $456 million against a budget of $60 million. Snyder directed the pic from a screenplay he co-wrote with Kurt Johnstad and Michael B. Gordon. Gerard Butler starred as Leonidas, King of Sparta; with Lena Headey as Queen Gorgo. A sequel, this time directed by Noam Murro and written by Snyder and Johnstad, hit theaters in 2014 but was met with mixed reviews.

A third film, this time telling the story of Alexander the Great, was planned but never came to fruition. The upcoming series will reportedly be a prequel, though Snyder has not yet confirmed whether he will write and direct in addition to executive-producing.

300 is streaming now on Hulu. The TV show spin-off does not yet have a release date. For more, check out our list of the best new TV shows coming your way in 2024 and beyond.
