David Lowery’s The Green Knight gets a poster







The Green Knight is the new film from David Lowery (A Ghost Story, The Old Man and The Gun). It is a fantasy film based on the Arthurian tale of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.
It describes how Sir Gawain, a knight of King Arthur’s Round Table, accepts a challenge from a mysterious “Green Knight” who dares any knight to strike him with his axe if he will take a return blow in a year and a day. Gawain accepts and beheads him with his blow, at which the Green Knight stands up, picks up his head and reminds Gawain of the appointed time.
Dev Patel, Alicia Vikander, Joel Edgerton, Barry Keoghan, Sean Harris, Kate Dickie, Emilie Hetlandand Ralph Ineson star, with Patel playing Sir Gawain.
A24 has released this striking new poster and the first trailer is due out tomorrow.
