Charlie as King Arthur
In the snap, Charlie’s staring straight into the camera, and to be honest, we’re hoping there are plenty of close-ups on his dreamy blue eyes in the movie.
Charlie has opened up to the mag about the role, revealing that while the setting might be slightly different to Guy’s other work, it’s still a “classic Guy Ritchie” movie.
“He’s a little bit rough around the edges, but he’s basically a survivor,” he said of his character.
“He’s a hustler. He’s a street kid. There’s definitely a harder edge to him than people would imagine.”
Charlie will lead a star-studded cast in the film, and other actors who’ve nabbed parts include Jude Law, Eric Bana and Cara Delevingne’s older sister Poppy.
