Controversy surrounds the excavation of an ancient tomb in Greece which a leading archaeologist had suggested could be linked to the family of Alexander the Great.

Hellraiser Colin Farrell developed such an emotional tie to historical figure Alexander The Great, he spent a day weeping at the grave of the Macedonian warrior's father.

The Greeks are the latest people to complain about Oliver Stone’s portrayal of Alexander the Great as bisexual.

Irish movie star Colin Farrell smoked heroin during a wild adolescence fuelled by drink and drugs, he admitted today.

Director Oliver Stone appears to be winning his battle with Australian filmmaker Baz Luhrmann to be first to the screen with the story of Alexander the Great.
