According to a report by Variety, stage veteran Bill Nighy is on board for the big screen sequel to CLASH OF THE TITANS. The film will feature direction by Jonathan Liebesman. David Leslie Johnsen and Steven Knight will pen the screenplay.

Nighy will star as Hephaestus, and will be joined by Sam Worthington as Perseus, Ralph Fiennes as Hades, and Liam Neeson as Zeus.

Nighy made his Broadway debut at the Music Box Theatre alongside Julianne Moore in The Vertical Hour, directed by Sam Mendes. He also starred in Tom Stoppard's Arcadia (1993), and Joe Penhall's Blue/Orange (2000), for which he won an Olivier Award nomination for Best Actor, and which transferred to the West End at the Duchess Theatre the following year.
