Chris Pine is returning as another charismatic lead in Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves. This character is a little more upbeat than the roles he's been known to play, which wasn't originally the case.
Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves will be the first theatrical release in over twenty years to adapt aspects of the popular role-playing game. The movie follows a group of adventurers as they attempt to recover a long-lost relic — unfortunately, their journey is not without incident. Enemies both old and new stand in the party's way, and they must use every skill they possess to triumph.
