King Arthur: Trailer & Synopsis

Another epic fantasy movie is dropping this summer, King Arthur – Legend of the Sword. And 2 Game of Thrones favorites are in it! Aidan Gillen and Michael McElhatton appear in the film in key roles.

From Warner Bros.:

“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.”

Well, that’s a little dry. So, if the synopsis doesn’t do it for you, maybe the trailer will. I mean you can’t go wrong with Led Zeppelin, Jude Law and 2 GoT favs, right?

Have a look. <activate speakers>

And if that wasn’t enough, here’s the Comicon trailer (look for Lord Bolton!).

King Arthur – Legend of the Sword opens May 12th. Get full details on the official website here.
