Between the new King Arthur poster, his dropping out of Drake Doremus' latest and now this, we run the risk of becoming CHNN, the Charlie Hunnam News Network. But before we lock James Earl Jones in the podbooth to start recording voice-overs, we'll instead simply let you know that the new trailer for the Hunnam-starring The Lost City Of Z, has arrived online.
Hunnam here plays Percy Fawcett, who headed into the Amazon on a mapping quest in 1925. There, suffering from a nasty case of malaria, he claimed to have discovered a mythical city he called the Lost City of Z. When his adventurer peers roundly mocked the idea as a fantasy or fraud, Fawcett gathered up his son and some other companions and headed back into the jungle to prove his point. And that’s the last anyone saw of the party...
Edward Ashley is Arthur Manley, a young corporal who accompanied Fawcett on his apparently doomed expedition. Robert Pattinson is Henry Costin, another bored corporal who answered Fawcett's advertisement to become his aide-de-camp. Tom Holland is Fawcett's son Jack. And Sienna Miller is Fawcett's supportive wife, Nina. The trailer points to the adventure being a truly risky one, full of dangerous encounters with fauna and arrows.
Directed by James Gray and adapted from David Grann's nonfiction tome, The Lost City Of Z ventures on to UK screens on 24 March.
