Previously known as Jack the Giant Killer when it was going to be released on June 15, 2012, the now, more family friendly, Jack the Giant Slayer will hit theaters on March 1, 2013 and the first trailer for the film since the name and date change has arrived to free us all of the confusion.
Directed by Bryan Singer and written by Mark Bomback (Live Free or Die Hard), Jack the Giant Slayer stars Nicholas Hoult as the title character and tells the story of an ancient war that is reignited when a young farmhand unwittingly opens a gateway between our world and a fearsome race of giants. Unleashed on the Earth for the first time in centuries, the giants strive to reclaim the land they once lost, forcing the young man, Jack, into the battle of his life to stop them. Fighting for a kingdom, its people, and the love of a brave princess, he comes face to face with the unstoppable warriors he thought only existed in legend—and gets the chance to become a legend himself.
The film co-stars Stanley Tucci, Ian McShane, Bill Nighy, Eleanor Tomlinson and Ewan McGregor.
