“You are Tarzan, you may not like who you are. You may have enemies, but you need to go home.”
A new trailer for the highly anticipated Tarzan film was released this weekend, the movie features Alexander Skarsgård as Tarzan, accompanied by some of the greats. Oscar nominees Samuel L. Jackson (Pulp Fiction) and Djimon Hounsou (Blood Diamond), with Oscar winner Jim Broadbent (Iris), and two-time Oscar winner Christoph Waltz (Django Unchained) and Margot Robbie (The Wolf of Wall Street) as Jane. Based on the beloved Edgar Rice Burroughs story David Yates (Harry Potter) is set for a big year having directed this film before starting production on the new ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them’.
Judging from the trailer the movie will be based between London and the Congo, the film picks up after Tarzan (now John Clayton III, Lord Greystoke) and Jane return from the jungle. Now invited back to the Congo as a trade emissary with Parliament he is unaware that Captain Leon Rom (Waltz) is using him as a pawn in a revenge plot. Though those deceiving him are unable to foresee the ramifications of deceit.
The trailer is a whirlwind of jungle scenery, sweeping shots of the forest roof and the power of animals. Mix this with a shirtless Alexander Skarsgård swinging from trees and Margot Robbie being a not-so-distressed damsel and you’ve got a hit on your hands.
The Legend Of Tarzan opens in 2D and 3D across Australia on the 7th July 2016. Check out the new trailer below and start counting down the days.
