Immortals… Sequels That Never Rise? Decoding the Fate of Film, Games, and More
Have you ever loved a story? Did you want a sequel? Many of us feel that way. Especially with “immortals” – be they gods, wrestlers, or heroes. This desire for endless stories is real. Let’s explore sequels that might not happen. This includes films, games, and WWE. Get ready for some truths and maybe hope too.
Immortals (2011): A Sequel Lost to the Ages?
Let’s start with the movie that made many think of ancient Greece in a new light: Immortals (2011). The tale of Theseus fighting gods and titans begs for a sequel, right? The internet talks with fan-made trailers that excite.
Immortals 2: The Teaser That Fooled (Almost) Everyone
Excited for Immortals 2? You may have seen a great teaser trailer on YouTube from Dynatic Films. It claims a 2025 release with Henry Cavill and Freida Pinto. Looks promising, right? However, it’s fan-made. There’s no official word about a real Immortals 2. Disappointing, but fan creativity thrives!
Why No Immortals 2? The Silence is Deafening
Why the lack of news on a sequel? Officially, there’s no cancellation. There was never any sequel confirmed. While Immortals had style and some box office success, it wasn’t a critical hit that demanded a follow-up. The studio seems to believe Theseus’s tale was best left alone. Disappointing for fans wanting more.
Decoding the Immortals (2011) Ending: Setting Up… Nothing?
Let’s go back to the end of Immortals. It was all about stopping the Titans from escaping Tartarus. But, they kind of do get free. Theseus kills Hyperion and stops the Titans’ plans. Then, Zeus collapses Mount Tartarus, killing most Titans. Yet, the end hints at more battles ahead with gods and Titans. His story is immortalized. Was this an opening for a sequel? Maybe narratively. But not enough to make Hollywood take another shot.
Meet the Pantheon: Characters of Immortals
Who were the key characters? Here’s a list:
- Theseus (Henry Cavill): The hero, son of Zeus, who fights Hyperion.
- Phaedra (Freida Pinto): The oracle supporting Theseus.
- Hyperion (Mickey Rourke): King who seeks power to free Titans.
- Zeus (Luke Evans): The king of the gods, disguised to help Theseus.
- Athena (Isabel Lucas), Poseidon (Kellan Lutz), Ares (Daniel Sharman), Apollo (Corey Sevier), Heracles (Steve Byers): Olympians often kept from acting directly.
Fun fact: Mythology says Theseus is Poseidon’s son. The movie decided Zeus was a better fit.
Immortals and 300: A Battle of Styles, Not Story
Is there a visual link to 300? Yes. Both movies share director Tarsem Singh. Both have similar hyper-stylized slow-motion action. Yet, they are different stories. The “Immortals” in 300 refer to soldiers of Persian King Xerxes, not Greek Titans. Enjoy the visuals, but don’t expect Spartans in Greece.
WWE Immortals 2: Tagged Out Before the Bell?
Next, we shift from myths to WWE Immortals, a mobile game that combined wrestling stars with supernatural powers. A sequel seemed possible. Let’s review the ringside notes.
WWE Immortals 2: A Dream Match That Never Happened
Will there be a WWE Immortals 2? Sadly, no. The original WWE Immortals game was shut down in February 2019. In-app purchases stopped in December 2018. Think of it as WWE politely ending a venture.
WWE Immortals: A Game Gone Too Soon?
The official announcement in 2018 made it clear: support would cease and the game would end. No dramatic reason was given, just the life cycle of mobile games. If you dreamed of a comeback or sequel, it’s time to let go.
What Could Have Been: WWE Immortals 2 Game Description (Hypothetical)
Imagine WWE Immortals 2. Enhanced graphics, more WWE and NXT stars, and legends too. New powers, tag-team modes, and deeper plots for wrestlers in supernatural forms. Made by those behind Mortal Kombat and Injustice, it had knockout potential. It remains a “what if” in gaming.
Immortals Fenyx Rising 2: A Phoenix That Didn’t Rise Again?
From WWE to Ubisoft’s take on Greek mythology – Immortals Fenyx Rising. This open-world adventure captivated many with humor and gameplay. Sequel potential existed. But did it get the go-ahead?
Immortals Fenyx Rising 2: Sequel… Cancelled?
Hold your horses. Whispers suggest an Immortals Fenyx Rising sequel was in the works but then canceled. Ubisoft’s strategic shift may be the reason. They now prioritize major franchises like Assassin’s Creed. Rational for business, but disappointing for fans wanting more Fenyx tales.
Why the Axe Fell: Focus on the Big Guns
Reports say Ubisoft Quebec was working on a sequel with a playable demo ready by last spring. However, established franchises like Assassin’s Creed took priority. The sequel was shelved. Fenyx’s sequel is grounded.
Fenyx: More Than Just a Pretty Winged Demigod
So, who is Fenyx? The hero of Immortals Fenyx Rising is customizable with wings and a quest to save Greek gods from a curse. Players can choose a male or female Fenyx, though canonically Fenyx is female. Think of them as witty, slightly clumsy, with a heart navigating a world filled with mythological beings.
Eternals 2: Eternally Delayed, or Eternally Cancelled?
Marvel’s Eternals, with its large cast, had mixed reception. What are the chances for a sequel? Let’s take a look into the cosmic crystal ball.
Eternals 2: In Limbo, Not Quite Cancelled (Yet?)
Is Eternals 2 cancelled? Marvel says there are “no plans” for a sequel right now. This could mean a project on hold or buried. However, “no plans” isn’t a strict “no.” Eternals fans still have hope, even if faint.
Rumor Mill: Cancellation Reports and Denials
The internet buzzes with conflicting reports. Some say Eternals 2 is canceled to focus on bigger box office hits. The next moment, insiders claim “Eternals 2 is not canceled!” Confusing, right? Kit Harington (Black Knight) seems unconcerned about a sequel, which doesn’t inspire confidence. The truth lies in an unclear middle – sequel chances seem slim, yet hope remains in the MCU.
Why Eternals 2 Faces an Uphill Battle: Reception and Risk
Why the hesitation for a sequel? Two key reasons: reception and risk. Eternals (2021) didn’t do great at the box office, and reviews were lukewarm at best. In today’s superhero space, studios are risk-averse. Disney/Marvel likely prefers big hit sequels with established fanbases over new ventures like Eternals. Negative reception plus high risks lead to sequel doubts. Simple math in Hollywood.

Whispers hint at a possible war between New Asgard and Omnipotence City, or even the return of Jane Foster and Heimdall.
Thor 5 Filming Timeline: Patience, True Believers
When will Thor 5 hit screens? Filming might begin in Fall 2025. So, fans, exercise patience. Asgardian adventures take time. Mark your calendars for a potential Fall 2025 production start.

The Nitty-Gritty of Immortality: How Do You Actually Kill an Immortal?
Let’s ask a philosophical question – how can one kill someone deemed immortal? Fictional rules apply here, of course.
Killing the Unkillable: A Guide to Immortal Termination (Fictionally Speaking)
- Decapitation: The Highlander method. Chop off the head and absorb their power (as in Highlander lore).
- Soul Removal: If they are *truly* immortal, their soul may tie to their body. Remove it, and problem solved. (Unless cursed with immortality like Deadpool).
Think of Highlander’s “Quickening.” This connects immortals to nature and grants agelessness but makes them vulnerable to decapitation. Immortality has loopholes even in fiction.
This deep dive explores the sequel status of “immortal” properties and ponders how to end an immortal’s journey. Movies, games, and wrestling all chase more content. The quest for sequels never ends, even if they don’t always rise again.
