Medusa (2027) | Angelina Jolie, Keanu Reeves, Jake Gyllenhaal
The myth of Medusa is one of the oldest and most enduring stories in the classical world, originating in ancient Greek mythology as a tale that has been retold, reinterpreted, and reimagined across nearly three thousand years of literature, art, and culture. In her most resonant form — popularized by Ovid in his Metamorphoses — Medusa was not born a monster but made one, a beautiful priestess of Athena whose desecration by Poseidon and subsequent punishment by the goddess herself transformed her into the serpent-haired Gorgon whose gaze turned living flesh to stone. Her story sits at the precise intersection of divine cruelty, mortal suffering, and the ancient world's most uncomfortable truths about power and its victims. Perseus and Medusa have appeared across countless adaptations including the 1981 classic Clash of the Titans and its 2010 remake, yet the full weight of Medusa's own perspective has rarely been given the cinematic treatment it demands. No official Medusa film with this cast has been announced, and none of these actors are attached to any such project.
