King Leonidas and his 300 Spartans may have lost their battle against Xerxes and the Persian army, but that doesn't mean there can't still be a sequel. The next installment, 300: Rise of an Empire, comes to theaters on March 7, and the trailer promises more heroic battles and feats of bravery for fans to feast upon.
