Dev Patel Wields an Axe in New Images from A24’s ‘The Green Knight’

A24 and director David Lowery‘s (A Ghost Story) The Green Knight is finally being released in theaters on July 30, 2021, and we’ve got a trio of new images for you today.

“From visionary filmmaker David Lowery comes a fresh and bold spin on a classic tale from the knights of the round table,” A24 explained The Green Knight last year.

“An epic fantasy adventure based on the timeless Arthurian legend, The Green Knight tells the story of Sir Gawain (Dev Patel), King Arthur’s reckless and headstrong nephew, who embarks on a daring quest to confront the eponymous Green Knight, a gigantic emerald-skinned stranger and tester of men. Gawain contends with ghosts, giants, thieves, and schemers in what becomes a deeper journey to define his character and prove his worth in the eyes of his family and kingdom by facing the ultimate challenger.”

Alicia Vikander, Joel Edgerton, Barry Keoghan, and Ralph Ineson also star.

The Green Knight is rated “R” for “Violence, some sexuality and graphic nudity.”
