Dungeons & Dragons Clip Shows Chris Pine Talking to a Corpse

Paramount Pictures has unveiled a brand-new Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves clip from the forthcoming live-action film adaptation of Hasbro’s popular tabletop game franchise. The film premieres in theaters on March 31, 2023

The Dungeons & Dragons clip features Chris Pine, Justice Smith, Sophia Lillis, and Michelle Rodriguez, with Smith’s character reanimating a corpse. Pine’s Edgin the Bard tries his best to ask the corpse five important questions as it repeatedly answers unnecessary questions not directed at it.

The live-action Dungeons & Dragons film is written and directed by Game Night duo Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley. The film stars Chris Pine (Wonder Woman 1984), Michelle Rodriguez (F9), Justice Smith (Detective Pikachu), Hugh Grant (Four Weddings and a Funeral), Sophia Lillis (It films), Chloe Coleman (My Spy), and Bridgerton breakout Regé-Jean Page.

The Dungeons & Dragons movie is being co-produced and co-financed by Hasbro, eOne, and Paramount Pictures. eOne handles distribution in the UK and Canada, while Paramount distributes everywhere else. It will also be produced by Hasbro’s Brian Goldner and Jeremy Latcham as part of his deal with eOne, Hasbro’s entertainment arm.

This marks the fourth time that the popular game is being adapted for the big screen, following Courtney Solomon’s 2000 live-action version, 2005’s telefilm sequel Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of the Dragon God, and 2012’s direct-to-DVD follow-up Dungeons & Dragons: The Book of Vile Darkness.
