‘King Arthur: Legend of the Sword’ Trailer Shows Charlie Hunnam as Buff, Streetwise Hero (Video)

Guy Ritchie may be the best thing to happen to medieval times since “Game of Thrones.”

The director’s vision of “King Arthur: Legend of the Sword” was presented to San Diego Comic-Con at the Warner Bros. panel on Saturday, and Ritchie’s high-octane sensibilities seemed to agree with the sword in stone.

The king himself, “Sons of Anarchy” alum Charlie Hunnam, was on hand to present the first look. Ritchie’s swift, almost-POV camerawork was on display — as was Hunnam’s enviable physique.

Hunnam seems much more like a street hustler than royalty in the action flick, but it works to his advantage. Jude Law makes for a compelling villain, with welcome appearances from Djimon Hounsou and Eric Bana.

Warner Bros. unleashes the retelling on March 24, 2017 in the U.S.
