The first trailer and poster for Brett Ratner's "Hercules" have been released. This movie should not be confused with the awful "The Legend of Hercules" which came out earlier this year. "Hercules" is based Radical Comics' graphic novel by Steve Moore and it stars Dwayne Johnson as the legendary hero in this "revisionist take on the classic myth". Judging from the trailer, the filmmakers are trying to present a more down to earth Hercules. This kind of "meet the man behind the legend" approach has not been terribly successful in the past (remember "King Arthur") and this year's "The Legend of Hercules" was also a flop, so Paramount has a risky deal on their hands. Time will tell. The film also stars Joseph Fiennes, John Hurt, Ian McShane, Joe Anderson, Peter Mullan and Rufus Sewell
"Hercules" opens in theaters on July 25th.
