New Centurion Preview and Clip
Posted 08.04.10 by Ryan
For those unfamiliar with British-Roman history, the story behind Centurion may feel unfamiliar, which is why Magnolia Pictures is working so hard to get the word out about the movie. Directed by Neil Marshall, Centurion is not a sequel to Gladiator, but rather tells of the legendary Roman Ninth Legion, who, while trying to rid Northern Britain of the "savage," guerrilla tribes known as the Picts, disappeared. Quintus Dias (Michael Fassbender plays the Roman Centurion of the title, and leads a small band of Roman survivors as they attempt a rescue for their captured general (Dominic West), while being hunted by the Picts.
The latest clip shows Fassbender on the run from Olga Kurylenko, who forces the group to quickly overcome their fear of heights.
For a further explanation of what the clip was all about, watch the preview below for expanded details, including interviews with Fassbender, West, Kurylenko and Marshall.
Centurion is available now on VOD, Dish Network, Xbox Live, PlayStation, Amazon, and Vudu, and can be seen in theaters starting August 27.
