Hercules: The Legend Begins Trailer

October 17, 2013By


If you haven’t already, you have to watch the trailer for Hercules: The Legend Begins. No, not the Rock one, this is the one with Kellan Lutz as Hercules. And it looks like Gladiator meets 300 with about ten seconds of Hercules things. Also Hercules can whip lightning around, something so strong in the Hercules legend it seems to have been made up for this film.

This trailer hits all the classic “epic” trailer notes – a hero is sent off to war and becomes a slave, but rises through the gladiator ranks thanks to his skills of jumping high up into the air in slow motion and slaying all opponents. An evil king calls him a funny insulting name, he and his forbidden girlfriend make out in a lake (and he gets a necklace), and Hercules talks about how they are fighting for their lives. The real question is will this Hercules: The Legend Begins film be so generic it impacts The Rock’s Hercules movie? Whatever the effect, we have a contender for 2014’s most overblown production, and I’m hoping for a camp classic.

I’m going to format these a little differently from now on, putting the links to other websites first and the news stories second, that way less good people get buried beneath mediocre news!

**This drawing of a teddy bear with a wooden sword protecting a girl from a giant monster has been optioned for a film starring The Rock. What you hear is the sound of a thousand people breaking out their sketch pads! You can thank Ted for this.

**The Rock is also Hercules in Brett Ratner’s Hercules!

**A remake of Romancing the Stone is a possibility. Because kids love a good Romancing the Stone flick…

**French action crime flick Point Blank is getting both a US and a Korean remake. The US version is rumored to be produced by Mark Wahlberg, while the Korean version will be directed by Juhn Jai-hong (a former protege of Kim Ki-duk)

**Speaking of Kim Ki-duk and his proteges, another one (Shin Yeon-shik) will be directing Rough Play, an action thriller Kim Ki-duk wrote and is producing. Boy band singer Lee Jun stars, he was also in Ninja Assassin. The plot deals with an actor who gets big overnight and the danger that entails.

**A Gremlins reboot is simmering once again.

And we’re outta here, until the next time we’re in here. Which will be soon.
