Hoping to capitalise of the monster success of dark fantasy series GAME OF THRONES, the first trailer and poster for Warner Bros forthcoming fantasy thriller SEVENTH SON has finally arrived. Sergey Bodrov is the director of the film being led by Jeff Bridges’ mythical knight, Father Grogory, who, along with his young apprentice Ben Barnes must hunt the evil witch, Mother Malkin (played by Bridges’ THE BIG LEBOWSKI co-star, Julianne Moore).
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) is a knight who had imprisoned the malevolently powerful witch, Mother Malkin (Julianne Moore), centuries 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 also stars Kit Harington, Alicia Vikander, Djimon Hounsou, Olivia Williams, Antje Traue. It hits US cinemas from the 17th January 2014 and, so far, we’re awaiting a confirmation date for 2014 in the UK.
