Paramount must be very high on “Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves” because here’s yet another trailer before its theatrical release next week. But the studio has good reason to be excited about the upcoming film. It did very, very well at SXSW earlier this month at its world premiere (The Playlist’s review of it is a rave), and seemingly surpassed everyone’s expectations.
Chris Pine headlines the ensemble cast of “Honor Among Thieves” as a charismatic thief who leads a troupe of adventurers on a quest to end all quests. Here’s an official synopsis for the film, courtesy of Paramount:
A charming thief and a band of unlikely adventurers undertake an epic heist to retrieve a lost relic, but things go dangerously awry when they run afoul of the wrong people. Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves brings the rich world and playful spirit of the legendary roleplaying game to the big screen in a hilarious and action-packed adventure.
Alongside Pine, “Honor Among Thieves” also stars Michelle Rodriguez, Regé-Jean Page, Justice Smith, Sophia Lillis, Hugh Grant, Daisy Head, Jason Wong, and Chloe Coleman. Also, expect cameos from the “Dungeons & Dragons” web series “Critical Role” and Bradley Cooper.
Jonathan Goldstein & John Francis Daley share directing duties on “Honor Among Thieves.” They also co-write the film’s script with Michael Gilio from a story by Gilio and Chris McKay.
