Director Louis Leterrier, writers Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi, and producer Basil Iwanyk hit the 'black' carpet at the LA premiere of Warner Bros Pictures' Clash of the Titans, an action-packed epic based on Greek mythology (and the 1981 movie). Leterrier is a big fan of the original film, as are the writers, and wanted to make sure this one lived up to the original while also giving audiences a new story to get into. And producer Iwanyk says converting it to 3-D will add to the audiences' experience of this new take on the classic film.

"A lot of 3-D movies are people reaching out of the camera and stuff, and Avatar just made it a more immersive experience. And so when we looked at the movie we realized, 'God, it almost looks like it was shot for 3-D.' Obviously it wasn't. And it was a consideration by us in the studio going, 'We could actually make this into a completely immersive experience.' Obviously, not like Avatar which was a different level of 3-D, but it was just to make it a lot more fun and a lot more exciting."

And in other news, Leterrier told me those Y: The Last Man and The Avengers directing rumors are just that - rumors. "It's funny. It's like if you ask me, 'Would you like to direct Superman?,' I'd say, 'Oh yeah, I'd love to direct Superman.' Bam! I'm directing Superman. Don't ask me anything because I'll say, 'Yeah, I'd love to do it.' I'm a fan. Before being a filmmaker, I'm a moviegoer. I'm a fan. I read comic books. I read books, I read all that stuff, so I've got stories in my head so when somebody says, 'Would you like to...,' of course I'd like to."

Leterrier might not be working on those projects, but writers Hay and Manfredi definitely are working on The Boys (based on the Darick Robertson/Garth Ennis comic book). In fact, they're very excited that it's currently in the 'hunt for a director' stage. The Boys will remain very faithful to the source material, with all the main characters making the leap to the big screen - as well as a couple of new characters. And asked what scene they're most excited about audiences getting to see, Hay replied, "I think Starlight's introduction to The Seven. I think fans will realize, once they know that that's in, they'll know the level of hardcore that we are going for."
