'Dragonheart 3' Trailer: Wait, There Was A 'Dragonheart 2'?
Almost 20 years ago we heard Sean Connery voice a dragon in the film Dragonheart. It's a film that has its fans, though it's been a while since we heard anyone pining fondly for that particular story. In 2015, however, fan patience will be rewarded with Dragonheart 3: The Sorcerer's Curse, which Universal will release direct to digital and disc. If you find yourself wondering where Dragonheart 2 went, you're not alone. Regardless, have a look at the Dragonheart 3 trailer below. (But don't expect Connery, as this time a different knight, Sir Ben Kingsley, is voicing the dragon.)
In fact, there was never a Dragonheart 2 — or, at least, there was never a film by that title. There was, however, a film called Dragonheart: A New Beginning, released in 2000 as a direct to video sequel to the original film. Hope that clears things up.
Here's the Dragonheart 3 trailer. This time, Colin Teague (Torchwood, Doctor Who, Being Human) directs from a script by Matthew Feitshans. Julian Morris, Tazmin Merchant, Jonjo O'Neill also star.
This trailer starts off feeling like it could almost be a comedy setup, and then it gets kinda sexy when the dragon sticks its face between the guy's legs. Sold!
Dragonheart 3 will be available on digital HD on February 10, 2015, and on Blu-ray and DVD February 25, 2015. Trailer via Universal.
