New "Enemy of Man" (Macbeth) Trailer
Shortlist has a look at the trailer for the upcoming Macbeth adaptation "Enemy of Man", starring Sean Bean in the title role (that title being "Macbeth", not "Man" nor "Enemy". :))
I don't like Sean Bean with short hair. Doesn't seem right.
I really wanted to see this trailer based on something else that Shortlist said a few months ago, when they referred to this one as "cutting back on the dialogue and cranking up the action." Because that's why we go to see Shakespeare, for the action. Maybe they'll do Hemingway next.
If you're as curious as I was I'll save you the trouble - the only text you get is a voiceover of the "Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow" speech. That's nothing. They could work that into a high school musical if they wanted. Doesn't tell us anything about how far they stray from the plot or anything. Heck even Fellowes' Romeo and Juliet gave us a better indication of why we wouldn't want to see it.
Oh, and it's got Ron "Rupert Grint" Weasley in it, swimming in his armor. No idea what role he plays. Wait, I can look that up....from the Kickstarter page, he plays Ross.
ROSS? That's funny. Look at how much screen time he gets in the trailer. I hope nobody is coming to this one just to see their Harry Potter crush.
I also learned on IMDB that people have been talking about this one since 2003 (at least!) and that Courtney Love was supposed to be in it at one point? I may have to see it just to see what took them so long.
