From nothing comes a King
When the child Arthur’s father is murdered, Vortigern, Arthur’s uncle, seizes the crown.

But once he pulls the sword Excalibur from the stone, his life is turned upside down and he is forced to acknowledge his true legacy... whether he likes it or not.
Director: Guy Ritchie
Writers: Joby Harold, Lionel Wigram, David Dobkin
