Charlie Hunnam 'Knights of the Round Table: King Arthur'

Guy Ritchie's Knights of the Round Table: King Arthur.

NadiaA71 NadiaA71 Knights of The Round Table: King Arthur is an upcoming film by Guy Ritchie with actor Charlie Hunnam cast in a leading role. Ritchie, known for his more edgy, fast-paced movies, is giving this King Arthur saga the same treatment he gave to Sherlock Holmes. His King Arthur is not going to be the ‘regal, goody-two-shoes’ character that is often portrayed in literature and previous films. Hunnam, who for seven seasons portrays Jax Teller in Sons of Anarchy, described his King Arthur as “A little bit rough around the edges”.

The film will retell King Arthur’s story, beginning from his youth, orphaned as an infant and raised by three prostitutes in 5th Century London. But it doesn’t always mean that it will be based completely on (gritty) realism, as the movie will also feature “giant snakes, massive war elephants, and a monstrous viking-like creature known as The Nemesis. Hopefully, loyalists won’t be too offended by what we’ve done,” producer Lionel Wigram told Entertainment Weekly.

Other cast in this fim includes Eric Bana as Arthur’s father, Uther; Astrid Bergès-Frisbey as Guinevere; Djimon Hounsou as Sir Bedivere; and, David Beckham as “Blackleg leader.” Knights of the Round Table: King Arthur will open Summer 2016.
