Move over Kracken, Perseus (Sam Worthington) has a new nemesis named ARES in WRATH OF THE TITANS!

Who is ARES
Son of Zeus and Hera, god of war, Ares is driven by revenge against his father and humanity into a pact with his uncle, god of the Underworld Hades, and his grandfather, the ancient Titan Kronos.  Together with Hades, Ares conspires to capture and imprison Zeus in a plot to bring down the gods and unleash chaos on humanity.  But first he will have to take on his demigod brother, Perseus.

Who is EDGAR RAMIREZ
EDGAR RAMIREZ (Ares – God of War) last starred in director Olivier Assayas' feature "Carlos," for which he received a 2011 Golden Globe nomination in the category of "Best Actor in a Television Miniseries" and a 2011 SAG Award® nomination in the category of "Outstanding Actor in a Television Miniseries".

Ramirez has also starred in the Ernesto 'Che' Guevara bio-pic, "The Argentine" (with Benicio Del Toro), “The Bourne Ultimatum”, “Vantage Point”, and “Domino”.

Action and Adventure: A decade after his heroic defeat of the monstrous Kraken, Perseus (Worthington) —the demigod son of Zeus (Neeson)—is attempting to live a quieter life as a village fisherman and the sole parent to his 10-year old son, Helius. Meanwhile, a struggle for supremacy rages between the gods and the Titans. Dangerously weakened by humanity’s lack of devotion, the gods are losing control of the imprisoned Titans and their ferocious leader, Kronos, father of the long-ruling brothers Zeus, Hades (Fiennes) and Poseidon (Huston). The triumvirate had overthrown their powerful father long ago, leaving him to rot in the gloomy abyss of Tartarus, a dungeon that lies deep within the cavernous underworld. Perseus cannot ignore his true calling when Hades, along with Zeus’ godly son, Ares (Ramírez), switch loyalties and make a deal with Kronos to capture Zeus. The Titans’ strength grows stronger as Zeus’ remaining godly powers are siphoned, and hell is unleashed on earth. Enlisting the help of the warrior Queen Andromeda (Pike), Poseidon’s demigod son, Argenor (Kebbell), and fallen god Hephaestus (Nighy), Perseus bravely embarks on a treacherous quest into the underworld to rescue Zeus, overthrow the Titans and save mankind.
