Page "Io (mythology)" Paragraph 11

In the 2010 film Clash of the Titans, Io was portrayed by British actress Gemma Arterton.

The character was a major deviation from Greek mythology: instead of being Zeus ' lover, she was portrayed as a guide to Perseus.

Her transformation into a cow was also not mentioned.

Instead, she was " cursed " with agelessness for refusing a god's romantic advances.
