Perhaps the greatest thing about Dungeons & Dragons is that it can be anything depending on who comes to the table, including a movie starring Chris Pine. Want to know what that might look like? You’re lucky.
Stuck in development for the better part of the last decade, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is an upcoming film based on the tabletop RPG and cultural phenomenon — and until this week, that’s all anyone knew. However, at San Diego Comic-Con, Paramount gave audiences their first look at the long-in-the-works film.
Instead of a darkly serious fantasy adaptation, this instead reads like a buddy heist movie full of recognizable monsters. Directed by John Francis Daly and Jonathan Goldstein (the duo behind the excellent comedy Game Night), Honor Among Thieves stars Chris Pine, Regge-Jean Page, Sophia Lillis (who shared that she got into D&D through an actual gaming podcast like Critical Role), and Michelle Rodriguez — who fans can see briefly at the Comic-Con show in a fun tavern installation.
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is scheduled for release in March 2023.
