On March 31st, Paramount Pictures will be giving a theatrical release to the live-action film Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, based on the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game franchise… and today, they have unveiled a fun clip from the movie that shows characters played by Chris Pine, Michelle Rodriguez, Justice Smith, and Sophia Lillis unearthing a corpse so they can revive it just long enough to ask it five questions. To see how that goes for them, check out the video embedded at the bottom of this article.
Directed by Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley from a script they crafted with Michael Gilio (who shares story credit with The Tomorrow War and Renfield director Chris McKay), Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves follows a charming thief and a band of unlikely adventurers as they embark on an epic quest to retrieve a lost relic. Things go dangerously awry when they run afoul of the wrong people.
The actors mentioned above are joined in the cast by Regé-Jean Page, Chloe Coleman, Daisy Head, Hugh Grant, and Jason Wong.
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves was produced by Jeremy Latcham, Brian Goldner, and Nick Meyer, with Goldstein, Daley, and Pine serving as executive producers alongside Denis L. Stewart, Zev Foreman, and Greg Mooradian.
Aside from sharing source material, this movie isn’t connected to the 2000 Dungeons & Dragons movie, which earned the Awfully Good treatment and spawned a couple of sequels (2005’s Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of the Dragon God and 2012’s Dungeons & Dragons 3: The Book of Vile Darkness). But Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves isn’t the only Dungeons & Dragons project in the works at Paramount. They are also developing a Dungeons & Dragons TV series that will run on the Paramount+ streaming service. Eight episodes have already been ordered. Red Notice writer/director Rawson Marshall Thurber has written the script for the pilot episode, which he will also be directing.
