Final King Arthur: Legend of the Sword Trailer – Charlie Hunnam takes on the legendary tale

April 1, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

While it looked for a while like Warner Bros. thought they had a flop with King Arthur: Legend Of The Sword and were going to dump the movie in a graveyard slot, they seem to have warmed to the movie. It’s now getting a prime May release date, and the hype is growing with the release of a new trailer.

Charlie Hunnam, Astrid Bergès-Frisbey, Djimon Hounsou, Aidan Gillen, Jude Law and Eric Bana star in the movie, which will follow the King in ‘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.”

The movie is set for release in May. The movie was originally set to be the start of a whole Knights Of The Roundtable franchise, with each movie focussing on a different knight. At the moment that’s been put on the backburner, but expect it to be resurrected if Legend Of The Sword is a success. [Read more…]

New King Arthur: Legend of the Sword Trailer – Charlie Hunnam takes on the legendary tale

January 23, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Back during Comic Con we got the first trailer for King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, and while it didn’t look as bad as some of the rumours said it might, it did look like it might be a bit silly and cheesy. However, a new promo has arrived which is much more intriguing, upping the fantasy elements and suggesting that Guy Ritchie’s attempt to do to King Arthur what he did to Sherlock Holmes – mixing modern sentiment and action with historical tales – might actually work quite well.

King Arthur: Legend of the Sword Comic-Con Trailer – Charlie Hunnam takes on the legendary tale

July 24, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

king-arthur-legends-of-the-sword-poster-slideGuy Ritchie seems to be doing to King Arthur what he did to Sherlock Holmes – mixing modern sentiment and action with historical tales, for something that’s not quite like anything you’d expect. A Comic-Con trailer has been released that gives us our best look so far.

Charlie Hunnam, Astrid Bergès-Frisbey, Djimon Hounsou, Aidan Gillen, Jude Law and Eric Bana star in the movie. It’s set for release next March (following a bit of a delay, as it was originally coming this summer).

Take a look at the pretty cool trailer below. Hunnam might actually make a better King Arthur than many originally thought her would. [Read more…]

New The Finest Hours Trailer – Chris Pine and co. face off against a mighty storm

November 11, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

finest-hours-trailer-slideChris Pine, CaseyAflleck, Ben Foster, Holliday Grainger and Eric Bana are getting heroic in the true-life tale with The Finest Hours, which now has a new trailer.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘In February of 1952, one of the worst storms to ever hit the East Coast struck New England, damaging an oil tanker off the coast of Cape Cod and literally ripping it in half. On a small lifeboat faced with frigid temperatures and 70-foot high waves, four members of the Coast Guard set out to rescue the more than 30 stranded sailors trapped aboard the rapidly-sinking vessel. “The Finest Hours” is the story of their heroic mission, which is still considered the greatest small boat rescue in Coast Guard history.’

Disney will release the movie in cinemas early next year.

The Finest Hours Trailer – Chris Pine, Ben Foster & Eric Bana deal with the ultimate storm

July 8, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

finest-hours-trailer-slideChris Pine hasn’t had a huge amount of luck as a leading man outside the Star Trek franchise – and in his case it really does seem like bad luck, as he is pretty good. He’ll be hoping for a hit with The Finest Hours, which looks like it’ll be mixing action, pathos and a bit of a period feel.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘In February of 1952, one of the worst storms to ever hit the East Coast struck New England, damaging an oil tanker off the coast of Cape Cod and literally ripping it in half.

‘“The Finest Hours” is the story of their heroic mission, which is still considered the greatest small boat rescue in Coast Guard history.’

The film will arrive in UK cinemas 29th January 2016. [Read more…]

Eric Bana Will Be Charlie Hunnam’s Father In Knights of the Round Table

February 12, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

eric-bana-slideGuy Ritchie’s take on the legends of King Arthur – Knights Of The Round Table – is slowly coming together, and now one more member had signed up, with Variety reporting that Eric Bana will play Arthur’s father, Uther.

He joins Charlie Hunnam as King Arthur, Astrid Berges-Frisbey as Guinevere, Djimon Hounsou in negotiations to play a character the king’s Merlin-like mentor Bedivere, and Jude Law playing the villain.

Joby Harold (Edge of Tomorrow) wrote the script, which is the first part of a planned six-movie franchise, which presumably will concentrate on different knights surrounding Arthur with each film. There’s still no news on the exact plot and direction the first movie will take.

Warner Bros. has had been trying to make an Arthurian movie for years. Indeed Ritchie was previously attached to a completely different King Arthur movie, which was written by John Hodge (Trainspotting). Another project, Arthur & Lancelot, even got to the point where Kit Harington (Game of Thrones) and Joel Kinnaman (The Killing) had been hired for the lead roles and the sets were ready to be built. However the studio backed out just a few weeks before production was due to begin.

Hopefully they won’t get cold feet with this version, which already has a July 22nd, 2016 release date set.

New Deliver Us From Evil Trailer – Eric Bana gets into exorcism in Scott Derrickson’s latest

April 11, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Scott Derrickson had a big hit with Sinister (which nearly makes us forgive him for the catastrophe that was his Day The Earth Stood Still remake), now he’s coming back with Deliver Us From Evil, which stars Eric Bana and Edgar Ramirez as a cop and a priest who team up to take on a series of possessions.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘In DELIVER US FROM EVIL, New York police officer Ralph Sarchie (Eric Bana), struggling with his own personal issues, begins investigating a series of disturbing and inexplicable crimes.

‘He joins forces with an unconventional priest (Edgar Ramírez), schooled in the rituals of exorcism, to combat the frightening and demonic possessions that are terrorizing their city. Inspired by the book, which details Sarchie’s bone-chilling real-life cases.’

The movie hits US cinemas on July 2nd and arrives in the UK on August 22nd. [Read more…]

New Lone Survivor Trailer – Mark Wahlberg, Ben Foster & Taylor Kitsch turn Navy Seals

November 11, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Lone Survivor is already building a bit of Oscar buzz, and it’ll be interesting to see whether it can build that in the run up to Awards season.

The movie is based on a failed 2005 mission, Operation Red Wing, which tasked four members of SEAL Team 10 (Wahlberg, Hirsch, Foster, Kitsch) to kill Taliban leader Ahmad Shah. However they were quickly compromised and came under attack. As the title suggests, it didn’t go well. It stars Mark Wahlberg, Ben Foster, Taylor Kitsch, Eric Bana, Emile Hirsch and Alexander Ludwig.

Universal have slotted it in for a prime Oscar push, with a limited US release around Christmas before it goes wide next January. Take a look at the new trailer below. [Read more…]
