A new poster and trailer is out for There Be Dragons, the drama which tells the story of London-based investigative journalist Robert Torres (Dougray Scott), who visits Spain to research a book about Josemaría Escrivá (Cox), the controversial founder of Opus Dei.
The film stars Charlie Cox (Stardust), Wes Bentley (American Beauty), Olga Kurylenko (Quantum Of Solace), Emmy Award-winning actor Derek Jacobi (Gladiator), Dougray Scott (Mission Impossible II) and Rodrigo Santoro (300)
But Robert hits a wall, both professionally and personally, when his most promising source—his own father, Manolo Torres (Bentley), turns out to be his least cooperative one. Robert begins to unearth his father's toxic secrets when he learns that Manolo was not only born in the same Spanish town as Josemaría, but that they were childhood friends and attended the same seminary. The two men take radically different paths in life, with Josemaría dedicating his life to his faith while Manolo is swept into the brutal and tumultuous Spanish Civil War. Manolo descends into a dangerous and jealous obsession when the beautiful Hungarian revolutionary Ildiko (Olga Kurylenko) doesn't return his affections and instead gives herself to the courageous military leader, Oriol (Rodrigo Santoro).
As Robert continues to unearth the secrets of Josemaría's life and Manolo's mysterious anger, their overlapping journeys are revealed with the truths and sorrows of their past choices, which compels Manolo to confront his own secret with one last opportunity of forgiveness.Star
Written and directed by two-time Academy Award-nominee Roland Joffé (The Mission, The Killing Fields), There Be Dragons opens in theaters on May 6, 2011.
