We've been hearing for a few weeks now that Warner Bros. is doing everything that can to get "Clash of the Titans" converted for a 3-D release. The possibility first emerged in late January, and all the news since has pointed to the 3-D release being a go, despite director Louis Leterrier's comments to us that 3-D is a "down the road" consideration. Still, for all of this scuttlebutt, there's been no confirmation from the studio.

Until now. Warner has finally stepped up with a reveal of their currently planned 3-D slate. "Clash" tops that list, with the March 26 release date now pushed back to April 2, as previously expected. Also confirmed for 3-D as rumors had suggested are parts one and two of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," which hit theaters on November 19 of this year and July 15, 2011, respectively.

Last week we learned that, despite director Louis Leterrier's statements to the contrary, Warner Bros was going ahead with tests to determine whether or not a 3-D release for "Clash of the Titans" was a viable option. Those tests have apparently gone well. Very well. In fact, WB is so encouraged by what they're seeing that things are now in motion for another of their big franchises.

The news now is that both parts of the final installment of "Harry Potter" -- "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" -- will hit theaters in 3-D, according to The Hollywood Reporter. As you might imagine, "Clash" is also going to get the 3-D release that many were hoping for. There's not been an official announcement as of yet, but THR's Heat Vision blog expects "Clash" to be confirmed by the week's end and "Potter" soon afterwards. Read more...

One of my favorite "10 in '10" interviews this week is with "Clash of the Titans" director Louis Leterrier. I've enjoyed every bit of the movie that's been revealed so far, and can't wait until it hits theaters on March 26. I usually tend to be wary of remakes, but this one looks like pure blockbuster to me. Bring it on.

In his "10 in '10" interview, Leterrier enlightened on the status of "Clash," where the production is at in these final weeks before release, what his expectations are and how he feels now that the bulk of the work is done. What the interview doesn't get into is Leterrier's take on "Clash" as a possible franchise. He had some things to say on that count however, and I'm pleased to share those words with you here on MTV Movies Blog. Read more...

"Clash of the Titans" director Louis Leterrier was an easy choice for this week's "10 in '10" interview series. "Clash" has all the makings of a blockbuster with enough drawing power to kick off the spring/summer season early when it hits theaters on March 26 of this year. As a special treat, and complement to our "10 in '10" interview with Leterrier, we've got a pair of exclusive behind the scenes photos from the set of "Clash." Just click the image below to jump over to the image gallery.

DESCUPDATE: We checked with Warner for confirmation. Here's what they had to say: "Heat Vision's report regarding the 'Clash' in 3-D is true. It may or may not be [released] in 3-D. At this point I don't know that we'll know in the next 10 days."

Sam Worthington is already the leading man behind the most successful 3-D film of all time in "Avatar," which may well turn into the most successful movie of all time, period. Is he going to go for a repeat performance in the world of 3-D with "Clash of the Titans," the upcoming mythology epic? That depends upon who you believe.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Warner Bros. is in the midst of deciding whether or not to release "Clash of the Titans" in 3-D. The studio has reportedly ordered a 3-D test of the film and will show off the converted scenes next week in an effort to determine whether or not "Clash" should see a 3-D release. The final decision is expected to come in the next 10 days, which is certainly down to the wire given the film's March 26, 2010 release date. Read more...

"Clash of the Titans" hits theaters on March 26, 2010. It will be director Louis Leterrier's follow-up to the 2008 Marvel Comics flick "The Incredible Hulk" and only his fourth feature as a director ("Transporter 2" and the Jet Li-starring "Unleashed" being the other two). Leterrier has honed his craft quite a bit through the years, and all signs suggest that "Clash" will be his biggest and best effort yet.

That said, there are still a few burning questions that fans want some answers on. The massive success of "Avatar," which also stars "Clash" lead Sam Worthington, has left many people wondering if the movie will be in 3-D. In fact, Worthington even mentioned the possibility of a 3-D release in a recent interview with the Los Angeles Times. There's also news that emerged earlier this week that British rock group Muse had been asked to score the movie. It's something they were interested in doing, frontman Matt Bellamy said in an interview with the Daily Star.

In an interview with MTV News earlier today (part of a longer upcoming feature we'll be posting on Louis' big year) Leterrier set the record straight at last on the 3-D and soundtrack rumors. Read more...

You may remember that earlier this week we pulled a monumental fakeout when the second "Clash of the Titans" trailer made a blink-and-you'll-miss-it appearance here on MTV Movies Blog. Well now it's officially on the Internet for one and all to see, and it's quite tantalizing. Don't take my word though; check it out for yourself. You can also head over to Apple for snazzy hi-def and iPod-friendly versions.

The second trailer for "Clash of the Titans" slipped onto the Internet over the weekend. The first trailer was no slouch, but this new one brings all sorts of thrilling money shots. You get Liam Neeson-as-Zeus (speaking even!), Ralph Fiennes' Hades, more giant scorpion action, a blink-and-you'll-miss-it reveal of Medusa and -- best of all -- a partial reveal of the fearsome Kraken sea monster.

Plus, the unveiling of the movie's vaguely blasphemous new tagline, "Damn the Gods." Get psyched people. The gods will be damned on March 26 of next year.

Move along. There's no embedded trailer to see here. You will get to see it soon enough, in lovely hi-def, when Warner Bros. officially releases it. That is all.

Many of us woke up this morning to the sight of an exciting new trailer, for Louis Leterrier's remake of "Clash of the Titans." Other than a footage-lite set visit, we really haven't seen anything from the actual movie until now. And it's looking pretty sweet, as you saw in the trailer this morning. This latest edition of Freeze Frame doesn't make it look any sweeter, but it does get a whole lot funnier. Enjoy.

If every movie trailer opened with a long shot of a giant scorpion, the world would be a far better place. The video below is the debut teaser for "Clash of the Titans," which hits theaters on March 26, 2010. It looks spectacle-rific, an effects-driven adventure set in a time when gods (more than one) interacted with mortals and monsters roamed the Earth freely. If the teaser is any indication, it looks like we'll be seeing a lot of both -- plus Sam Worthington -- come March.
