Guy Ritchie's King Arthur film has been delayed, moved around and renamed (current title: King Arthur: Legend Of The Sword). So Ritchie and star Charlie Hunnam will no doubt be hoping that the Comic-Con panel set for Saturday will bring some much-needed buzz boosting. In advance of that, the film's first poster has arrived.

It's all Hunnam, all the time, which makes sense given that he's the title character, looking moody and thoughtful and probably pondering some great mystery. Or thinking of ways to stop evil Jude Law from being even more evil.

With his father murdered and the throne usurped by his uncle Vortigern (Law) in Claudius-from-Hamlet style, this Arthur will have to fight back, but will face off against more than just Law's meanie standing around looking like he's trying to impersonate Iron Man (or throw shade), Vortigern has some serious dark magic backing him up.

With Annabelle Wallis,Djimon Hounsou, Astrid Bergès-Frisbey and Eric Bana also in the cast, King Arthur: Legend Of The Sword will march into UK cinemas on March 24 next year.
