This seems very weird given that both media involve Greek mythological settings. And the video game had to be renamed as well…

Trademark generally only applies within the same medium. The point is to prevent confusion between two competing products. A movie and a video game do not overlap.
Not true at all. That’s just not how trademark protection work.
A movie trademark might not get protected from, say, a food. Those are not related. Trademark protection can apply across media though, especially when it’s something similar like movies and video games (again, contrast that to movies and food)
Movies reuse names occasionally too. As long as they’re not novel names or coming out at the same time it generally doesn’t seem to be an issue.
