This is what we’re talking about! After a lackluster clip from Brett Ratner’s Hercules (still disconcerting, since it actually represents what the film is going to play like when all is said and done), we finally have a badass, magic-fighting trailer for the sword-and-sandal blockbuster hitting theaters on July 25, 2014. Dwayne Johnson stars as Hercules, some bad guy was stupid enough to kill his family, and now he’s out for revenge in his invulnerable lion cape, fighting hydras and cerebuses and all kinds of crazy mythological stuff.
All this and a super-dramatic remix of “No One Knows” by The Queens of the Stone Age. It could have used more dubstep, of course, but there’s only so much manly chestbeating a single trailer can throw at you at once.
What do you think? Is this the trailer for the Hercules movie you want to see? Because you sure as heck didn’t rally around Renny Harlin’s The Legend of Hercules back in January.
