Bond movie actors Gemma Arterton and Mads Mikkelsen are to star in mythological epic Clash of the Titans.

British actress Arterton, who played Agent Strawberry Fields in Quantum of Solace, said she is "really excited" about her role of demi-goddess Io.

Danish star Mikkelsen, who portrayed villain Le Chiffre in Casino Royale, will play a warrior called Draco.

The movie, which is a new version of the 1981 original, is due to begin filming later this month.
