The first trailer and a new character poster for Sergei Bodrov’s ‘Seventh Son’ has been released by Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures. The new Comic Con poster features ‘Game of Thrones’ star Kit Harington who seems perfectly at home in his latest ‘ye olde’-type role. The flick is based on the first novel in a series of books by author Joseph Delaney entitled ‘The Spook’s Apprentice’. The movie stars Jeff Bridges (‘R.I.P.D.’), Julianne Moore (‘Carrie’), Ben Barnes (‘Dorian Gray’), Alicia Vikander (‘Anna Karenina’), Antje Traue (‘Man of Steel’), Olivia Williams (‘The Sixth Sense’) and Djimon Hounsou (‘The Island’). Check out the poster and of course the new trailer below.
“In a time long past, an evil is about to be unleashed that will reignite the war between the forces of the supernatural and humankind once more. Master Gregory (Jeff Bridges), the last of the Falcon Knights, had imprisoned the malevolently powerful witch, Mother Malkin (Julianne Moore), many years ago. But now she has escaped and is seeking vengeance. Summoning her followers of every incarnation, Mother Malkin is preparing to unleash her terrible wrath on an unsuspecting world. Only one thing stands in her way: Master Gregory. In a deadly reunion, Gregory comes face to face with the evil he always feared would someday return. He has only until the next full moon to do what usually takes years: train his new apprentice, Tom Ward (Ben Barnes) to fight a dark magic unlike any other. Man’s only hope lies in the seventh son of a seventh son.”
‘Seventh Son’ opens in UK theatres on 25 October and in the US on 17 January 2014.
