No contracts have been hammered out just yet, so it appears Hunnam isn’t a lock for the role, but it’s certainly the sort of thing he could do well after his years sitting at tables with modern-day knights. Even if they were actually criminal road warriors riding metal steeds into battle in TV’s Sons Of Anarchy…
It seems the film is currently called Knights Of The Round Table: King Arthur, and Warner Bros. is hoping that it’ll spawn a franchise that lasts for six planned films, sprung from the brains of Ritchie and Edge Of Tomorrow producer Joby Harold, who wrote this initial script.
If Hunnam does lock in a deal, he may be reuniting with Elba, his Pacific Rim co-star. The once and future Loofah Luther is wanted to play a version of Bedivere, who is in many versions of Arthurian legend a noble and loyal member of the King’s knights. In Ritchie’s take, he’s apparently an older, wiser warrior and a right-hand man to Arthur’s father, who makes it his mission to train the young man for his true destiny.
Warners is looking to get the film on screen for July 22, 2016.
