"The Mummy" director Stephen Sommers has signed on to direct an update of the Greek mythological tale of Jason and the Argonauts, Variety reports.
The tale of the Argonauts was memorably brought to the screen by stop-motion special effects pioneer Ray Harryhausen in the 1963 film "Jason And The Argonauts". Harryhausen brought that distinctive style to subsequent films "The Golden Voyage Of Sinbad" (1974), "Sinbad And The Eye Of The Tiger" (1977), and "The Clash Of The Titans" (1981).
