A new dawn, and possibly even a franchise, await the legend of British folklore hero King Arthur.

Warner Bros’ “King Arthur: Legend of the Sword,” out in U.S. theaters on Friday, revives the tales of the legendary warrior, his famed knights of the round table, and the magician Merlin.

Directed by Guy Ritchie, “Legend of the Sword” goes back to the origins of Arthur, played by Charlie Hunnam, as he is plucked from the poverty in which he grew up as an orphan, and becomes a reluctant leader of a resistance against his uncle, King Vortigern, played by Jude Law.
