The Los Angeles Times had an early look at footage of Robert Zemeckis' BEOWULF. This same footage will be appearing tonight on a special 3-D format at Comic Con 2007. Tomorrow, it will be released in standard format in Hall C of the convention. The LA Times describes a scene they were shown and releases two new production photos. The photo on your immediate left is Ray Winstone as the lead character.
From the article:
Angelina Jolie's lips look even fuller than usual. She's emerging naked from a pool of dank cave water, rivulets of gold streaming gently down her body.
"Giiiif meee sonnnn," she coos, in an Old English accent.
Her flaxen hair is braided down her back in a long tail that slowly undulates and slaps the dark pool around her. She continues to purr enticements about making babies as a virtual camera circles 360 degrees panning around her long limbs and waist. Gold dribbles down her inner thighs past her feet, revealing sharp stilettos merged with bestial hooves.
Plot Summary: This take of the classic from director Zemeckis is a hyper violent and highly sexualized tale of the warrior Beowulf (Ray Winstone) who must slay the monster Grendel (Crispin Glover). Later, Grendel's mother (Jolie) seduces Beowulf so that she can produce a replacement heir that will allow her to reestablish her dominion over the kingdom.
