  Clash of the Titans is a British–American fantasy action film franchise based on characters and myths of Ancient Greek mythology. The 1981 feature film Clash of the Titans was remade in 2010, spawning the 2012 sequel Wrath of the Titans. Following an initial announcement, the subsequent sequel Revenge of the Titans went undeveloped.
  
  ## Films
  
  The series originates with Clash of the Titans in 1981. A concept for a sequel was proposed to MGM in 1984, but Force of the Trojans was never produced.
  
  The success of the 2010 Clash of the Titans remake prompted the sequel Wrath of the Titans. While Wrath of the Titans was still in post-production in November 2011, Warner Bros. hired Dan Mazeau and David Leslie Johnson to write a treatment for a third installment, Revenge of the Titans. By the spring of 2013 Sam Worthington said a third film was unlikely.
