The holiday season is almost around the corner, and before we know it, it’s the New Year! The theatrical debut of Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves will take place in March, much to the delight of fans of the action roleplaying game. We have a new visual for the action-adventure movie to share with you as we build up to the release, and it teases something evil that is watching our heroes.
The new image features almost the full complement of our thieving heroes in one epic shot. With Chris Pine and Regé-Jean Page at the center of the shot, the team is crouched over what seems to be a heap of bones – skulls and the like. However, from the expression on their faces, being surrounded by disconnected human skeletal remains is not much of a bother. Out of shot, something seemingly sinister has caught the crew’s attention, and they do not seem very pleased to be entertaining its company. Pine’s Edgin, while staring with mouth opened, has his lute slung across his back, but it would seem that whatever is being looked at off-camera would need the hilt and blade of a paladin, Xenk (Page) to ward off than the lute of a bard.
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is, of course, based on the Hasbro’s titular fantasy tabletop role-playing game. It was created by Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson back in the 70s. The game allows players to become the embodiment of heroes of their own creation, setting off on quests of their own making or pre-written. Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves will take viewers on an altogether brand-new adventure as a thief and his adventuring party, in their bid to complete “an epic heist,” snatch a precious item for the wrong kind of person.
