Beowulf, Pride is the curse. (2007)

A new Beowulf movie is coming out on November 16. Directing this ancient epic tale is non other then Robert Zemeckis who has many films under his belt such as all the Tales from the Crypt, The Frighteners, What lies Beneath, Forrest Gump, and Cast Away. Also on board is legendary writer Neil Gaiman, known for his fantastic and award winning graphic novels, The Sandman Series and 1602.
The movie is going to be entirely CG. It will have really actors though (including a naked Angelina Jolie and Anthony Hopkins, John Malkovich) but just masked with computer renditions. Kind of like A Scanner Darkly.
There has been many adaptations of this epic poem, I especially liked the somewhat lower budget Beowulf & Grendel (2005)
It's the blood-soaked tale of a Norse warrior's battle against the great and murderous troll, Grendel. It has an amazing looking trailer. Click the link below to check it out.
