Determined to keep on making movies until all of history is orange-tinted and glistening with sweat, 300 producers Gianni Nunnari and Mark Canton have started developing a film based on the life of Roman dictator and A-number-one Ides hater Julius Caesar. Working with Lionsgate and fellow producers Matt Jackson and Nigel Sinclair, the duo are putting together an adaptation of Conn Iggulden’s Emperor series, which sees a young Caesar team up with his friend and eventual betrayer Marcus Brutus to go on exertion-heavy adventures, presumably without wearing much in the way of shirts.
