Titled When Titans Ruled the Earth, this double-disc double feature includes director Louis Leterrier’s 2010 film release of Clash of the Titans and filmmaker Jonathan Liebesman’s 2012 follow-up, Wrath of the Titans, both starring Sam Worthington (Avatar: The Way of Water, Hacksaw Ridge) as Perseus, the son of Zeus (played by Liam Neeson).
This is kind of cool having both films as a collection, especially so as these are genre fan delights, which the mainline critics tended to pan … combined the pair did close to $800 million in box office receipts, so critics be damned!
As to bonus goodies, let’s begin with Clash of the Titans.
There are deleted scenes, an alternate ending and a newly prepared video session with producer Basil Iwanyk titled “Scaling Mount Olympus.” Additionally, there are nine featurettes — “Sam Worthington is Perseus,” “Zeus: Father of Gods and Men,” “Enter the World of Hades,” “Calibos: The Man Behind the Monster,” “Tenerife: A Continent on an Island,” “Scorpioch,” “Actors and Their Stunts,” “Wales: A Beautiful Scarred Landscape,” “Bringing Medusa to Life,” “Prepare for the Kraken!” and “Sam Worthington: An Action Hero for the Ages.”
There are also a whopping ten production featurettes included with this 4K Ultra HD release — “Who Are the Titans?,” “Hephaestus: God of Fire,” “Lost in Tartarus’ Labyrinth,” “Creatures of the Titans,” “Path of Men,” “Battling the Chimera,” “Agenor: The Other Demi-God,” “The Cyclops Fight,” “Prison of the Titans,” “Minotaur: The Human Nightmare” and “The Heavens Raise Hell on Earth.”
