A new featurette introduces some of the creatures that will be seen in Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves
On March 31st, Paramount Pictures will be giving a theatrical release to the live-action film Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, based on the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game franchise – but a month out from the release date, a featurette has arrived online to introduce some of the creatures that will be seen in the movie. You can check it out in the embed above… and there are some interesting beasts in there. I especially like the “brain cannibal” thing.
Directed by Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley from a script they crafted with Michael Gilio (who shares story credit with The Tomorrow War and Renfield director Chris McKay), Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves follows a charming thief and a band of unlikely adventurers as they embark on an epic quest to retrieve a lost relic. Things go dangerously awry when they run afoul of the wrong people.
The film stars Chris Pine, Michelle Rodriguez, Justice Smith, Sophia Lillis, Regé-Jean Page, Chloe Coleman, Daisy Head, Hugh Grant, and Jason Wong. A few of those actors can be seen in the featurette, commenting on the creatures.
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves was produced by Jeremy Latcham, Brian Goldner, and Nick Meyer, with Goldstein, Daley, and Pine serving as executive producers alongside Denis L. Stewart, Zev Foreman, and Greg Mooradian.
Aside from sharing source material, this movie isn’t connected to the 2000 Dungeons & Dragons movie, which earned the Awfully Good treatment and spawned a couple of sequels (2005’s Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of the Dragon God and 2012’s Dungeons & Dragons 3: The Book of Vile Darkness). But Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves isn’t the only Dungeons & Dragons project in the works at Paramount. They are also developing a Dungeons & Dragons TV series that will run on the Paramount+ streaming service. Eight episodes have already been ordered. Red Notice writer/director Rawson Marshall Thurber has written the script for the pilot episode, which he will also be directing.
