To Produce Atlantis
The BBC is planning a movie to tell the story of the ancient cataclysm that's believed to be the basis for the Atlantis legend. Atlantis will "tell the dramatic story of the greatest natural disaster to shake the ancient world, a disaster that triggered the downfall of a civilisation and spawned a legend." The film will be made using the same techniques as Zack Snyder's Spartan war epic 300 and will be accompanied by a documentary looking at the historical evidence. No transmission dates have yet been announced."
