Loosely based on the Greek myths of Theseus and the Minotaur, and the Titanomachy, the film was previously named Dawn of War and War of the Gods before being officially named Immortals.

Premiering in Los Angeles on November 8, 2011, the film received generally mixed reviews, with critics, while praising the music score and visuals, criticized Tarsem's direction, the ensemble cast, action sequences, production and costume design, the film's storytelling, and the lack of character development.
