Netflix has released the first poster for the upcoming William Shakespeare adaptation The King which features Timothee Chalamet as Hal, a.k.a. King Henry V; take a look at the poster here…
Hal (Timothée Chalamet), wayward prince and reluctant heir to the English throne, has turned his back on royal life and is living among the people. But when his tyrannical father dies, Hal is crowned King Henry V and is forced to embrace the life he had previously tried to escape. Now the young king must navigate the palace politics, chaos and war his father left behind, and the emotional strings of his past life — including his relationship with his closest friend and mentor, the ageing alcoholic knight, John Falstaff (Joel Edgerton).
The King is directed by David Michod and features a cast that includes Timothee Chalamet, Joel Edgerton, Sean Harris, Ben Mendelsohn, Robert Pattinson, Lily-Rose Depp, Tom Glynn-Carney, and Thomasin Harcourt McKenzie.
