WILL SHARPE AND PAUL BETTANY TRAILER

Amadeus starts December 21st

Sky has revealed new trailer with Will Sharpe in the lead role in their AMADEUS mini series set within the musical hub of bustling Vienna at the end of the 18th century, where 25 year-old Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart arrives in the city no longer a child and determined to carve his own path. Recently unemployed and without the management of his father, Amadeus finds an unlikely ally in a young singer who will become his wife, fiery Constanze (Gabrielle Creevy). Her connections help bring him into the orbit of the court composer Antonio Salieri (Paul Bettany), setting the three of them on a collision course that will ultimately define their lives and their legacies for years to come. Hero of his own story but villain to history, Salieri’s envy turns vengeful as he uses any means necessary to thwart Mozart and protect his position in the establishment. The five part drama will air December 21st on Sky. Check out the trailer below and tell us what you think.

DISNEY'S 'SWORD IN THE STONE' LIVE ACTION REMAKE FINDS ITS DIRECTOR! PAUL BETTANY TO PLAY PRINCE PHILIP IN 'CROWN'? 'SIREN' MERMAID TV SERIES CAST PHOTO AND TEASER SWEPT ASHORE!

  'SWORD IN THE STONE'

DISNEY'S MOVIE FINDS DIRECTOR

It is based on T.H.White's book

As you already know Disney is doing a lot of live action remakes of their famous animated classics and one of them is also SWORD IN THE STONE which has just found its director in Juan Carlos Fresnadillo (28 Weeks Later)! The 1963 animated hit was, as 'The Hollywood Reporter' writes, the final movie released by the studio before Walt Disney’s death!

The movie takes a light hearted view of the famous mediaeval legend of King Arthur, focusing on the young Arthur being mentored by the magician Merlin. This is not to be confused with another Disney's project on the same topic The Merlin Saga which might be helmed by Ridley Scott. That one follows young Merlin. Is generally grim and dark Fresnadillo the right director for this job?
