I don’t really have much to add about the latest trailer for Guy Ritchie’s King Arthur: Legend Of The Sword. It looks epic but I can’t say I’m hugely impressed by it so far and to establish this as the first of a whole franchise of titles may be stretching it. We’ll see how this goes.
Acclaimed filmmaker Guy Ritchie brings his dynamic style to the epic fantasy action adventure “King Arthur: Legend of the Sword.” Starring Charlie Hunnam in the title role, the film is an iconoclastic take on the classic Excalibur myth, tracing Arthur’s journey from the streets to the throne.
When the child Arthur’s father is murdered, Vortigern (Jude Law), Arthur’s uncle, seizes the crown. Robbed of his birthright and with no idea who he truly is, Arthur comes up the hard way in the back alleys of the city. But once he pulls the sword from the stone, his life is turned upside down and he is forced to acknowledge his true legacy…whether he likes it or not.
Charlie Hunnam and Oscar nominee Jude Law star, Astrid Bergès-Frisbey, Oscar nominee Djimon Hounsou, Aidan Gillen as and Eric Bana.
Check out the trailer before its May 21 release.
