Eva Green's '300: Rise of an Empire' Character Gets a New Pic and Description

I'm not sure how long this has been up on the official website for 300: Rise of an Empire, but I haven't seen it online anywhere. After the Internet went crazy over the first shot of Eva Green as Artemisia in the 300 prequel, I figured this would be worth sharing too. In addition to this picture, there's also another new but very, very small and low-res shot of Green on the Artemisia character page. Here's what the site has to say about Artemisia:

A woman commanding armies in a man's world, this skilled and ruthless warrior—the real power behind Xerxes' throne—knows that the rules have never applied to her. And never will. Meeting Themistokles head-on with the Persian armada, Artemisia will set the sea on fire, assaulting Greece not only for power and glory but for vengeance, the roots of which are known only to herself…and for which she is willing to sacrifice thousands and alter the fate of nations. 

Bringing the volatile, vindictive and unapologetically ambitious warrior Artemisia to life is Eva Green, who says, "I love playing evil characters, but ones who are complex, and have a reason to behave in such a way… It's always more interesting."

300: Rise of an Empire hits theaters on Aug. 2, 2013. Check out the full version of the new picture of Green after the jump.
