The highly anticipated film Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves has just unveiled a captivating new trailer. Building upon last year’s San Diego Comic-Con reveal, this new trailer provides a closer look at the villains, exciting Easter eggs, and a series of chaotic events that unfold as if the players continuously rolled low numbers on the dice. Originally scheduled for release in July 2021, the film adaptation faced numerous setbacks due to the COVID-19 pandemic and internal issues, ultimately settling on a 2023 premiere. Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is set to hit theaters worldwide on March 31.
The trailer for Dungeons & Dragon: Honor Among Thieves cleverly showcases the stark contrast in personalities between the lead characters. The fierce Holga the Barbarian (Michelle Rodriguez) effortlessly dispatches a group of goons in a brutish fashion, while the cowardly bard Edgin (Chris Pine) resorts to unconventional methods, attempting to free himself from rope handcuffs by vigorously rubbing them against the stairs. In a lighthearted moment, Edgin exclaims, “You know what? I’m sure there are sharper stairs somewhere else!” Meanwhile, the film’s premise is reintroduced, following Edgin and a group of unconventional adventurers on a fantastical quest to retrieve an ancient relic. Unfortunately, our heroes inadvertently handed the relic to the wrong person, thereby unleashing the “greatest evil the world has ever known.”
As our heroes grapple with the severity of the situation, Xenk (Regé-Jean Page), a stoic Paladin, reveals that the Red Wizards have created an army of undead. Determined to overcome this daunting challenge, our adventurers begin brainstorming strategies. The Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves trailer then highlights the unique abilities of each character. Sophia Lillis (It: Chapter Two) portrays Doric the shapeshifter, skilled at morphing into various animals and deftly navigating through even the tiniest crevices. Justice Smith (Detective Pikachu) takes on the role of Simon the sorcerer, whose spellcasting remains unpredictable and captivating.
We are then treated to glimpses of the heroes’ epic battle against one of the Red Wizards of Thay, Sofina (Daisy Head), who conjures a spectral, meaty hand in an attempt to capture Doric. As previously mentioned, the Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves trailer is filled with delightful Easter eggs for fans, many of which were elaborated on in an IGN interview with the film’s co-directors, Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley. One notable Easter egg is the hefty version of the Embershard dragon, leaning into the lore’s representation of the dragon as a glutton. Additionally, Dark Souls players will recognize the mimic chest, which opens wide to reveal a set of menacing teeth when triggered.
Embracing the spirit of the renowned tabletop role-playing game, the film promises an exciting and playful experience. Alongside the talented ensemble, including Hugh Grant as Forge Fitzwilliam, the cunning Rogue who befriends our heroes before unveiling his own agenda, the film presents a humorous tone that actor Hugh Grant has compared to the wit of Monty Python.
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves will release in theaters worldwide on March 31. In India, the movie will also be available in Tamil and Telugu.
