MTV is confirming what Kellan Lutz first mentioned at the Official Twilight Tour in Los Angeles, that he has been cast as the Greek God Poseidon in War of the Gods. When Kellan spoke to the audience at The Official Twilight Tour, he stated that Poseidon was his favorite in mythology.
“Twilight” actor Kellan Lutz is the newest recruit in “War of the Gods,” the upcoming Greek mythology epic from director Tarsem Singh (“The Fall”).
Lutz has earned the role of Poseidon, the Greek god that rules over the seas, according to Variety. He joins an impressive cast list that includes Henry Cavill (“The Tudors”) as the heroic Theseus, Mickey Rourke (“Iron Man 2”) as the ruthless King Hyperion and Freida Pinto (“Slumdog Millionaire”) as Phaedra, an oracle priestess.
