Pompeii Serves Up A First Clip

Paul WS Anderson’s epic POMPEII is all set to blow later this month and the first clip from the historical disaster movie has just hit the web over at Yahoo! Movies.

Set in 79 A.D., POMPEII tells the epic story of Milo (Kit Harington), a slave turned invincible gladiator who finds himself in a race against time to save his true love Cassia (Emily Browning), the beautiful daughter of a wealthy merchant who has been unwillingly betrothed to a corrupt Roman Senator. As Mount Vesuvius erupts in a torrent of blazing lava, Milo must fight his way out of the arena in order to save his beloved as the once magnificent Pompeii crumbles around him.

Take a look at the clip featuring Harrington and fellow cast members Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Kiefer Sutherland, Jared Harris and Sasha Roiz.

This one blasts into cinemas on the 21st February in the US, but UK fans will have to wait until the 2nd of May to see it. Poor buggers.
