What Is the Movie About?

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is based on the tabletop role-playing game, Dungeons & Dragons, in which players can create their own characters and embark on an imaginary adventure.

Honor Among Thieves takes place in the campaign setting of the Forgotten Realms, created by game designer Ed Greenwood in 1967.

Speaking to Collider, Chris Pine teased the movie was a mixture of The Princess Bride meets Game of Thrones, and more.

He said: "The way I've been describing it, it's like Game of Thrones mixed with a little Princess Bride, just a smidge of Holy Grail; it's somewhere in that ballpark. It's a lot of fun. It's got a lot of thrills. It's poppy, it's eighties heartfelt, there's a bit of Goonies in there."

The synopsis for Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves teases: "A charming thief and a band of unlikely adventurers undertake an epic heist to retrieve a lost relic, but things go dangerously awry when they run afoul of the wrong people.

"Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves brings the rich world and playful spirit of the legendary roleplaying game to the big screen in a hilarious and action-packed adventure."
