Based on the international anime sensation, Knights of the Zodiac brings the Saint Seiya saga to the big screen in live-action for the first time. Seiya (Mackenyu), a headstrong street teen, spends his time fighting for cash while he searches for his abducted sister. When one of his fights unwittingly taps into mystical powers he never knew he had, Seiya finds himself thrust into a world of warring saints, ancient magical training, and a reincarnated goddess who needs his protection. If he’s to survive, he will need to embrace his destiny and sacrifice everything to take his rightful place among the Knights of the Zodiac.

 

Knights of the Zodiac stars Mackenyu, Famke Janssen, Madison Iseman, Diego Tinoco, Mark Dacascos, Nick Stahl, and Sean Bean.

 

Directed by Tomek Baginski from a screenplay by Josh Campbell & Matt Stuecken and Kiel Murray, based on original stories and characters from The Manga “Saint Seiya” by Masami Kurumada. Knights of the Zodiac opens only in theaters on May 12, 2023.

I don't know.  The fact I have never even heard of this before now and it's releasing in less than 2 months does not bode especially well.  Especially given there are some real actors in there.  This looks a lot like Gods of Egypt all over again.

Maybe it has cult status potential?  I hope they didn't spend too much on it.

Hope Sean Bean and the kid with him are prepared to be deaf for at least the next week.

Did Sean Bean just survive a bullet? 

 

This is ground breaking cinema!
