Wrap on filming "300"?

Answer:

TOGA

Hint:

Think of the traditional garment worn by ancient Greek and Roman figures, often seen in historical epics featuring Spartan warriors.

Explanation:

The clue plays on the word "wrap," which can mean both a garment and the end of filming. "300" refers to the movie about ancient Sparta, where actors wore togas as costumes. So "wrap on filming '300'" hints at the toga as the garment used in that film.
