Watch the intense trailer for the upcoming Ridley Scott drama, The Last Duel, performing Jodie Comer, Adam Driver, Matt Damon, and Ben Affleck.

The historic epic is a cinematic and thought-provoking drama set in the midst of the Hundred Years War that explores the ubiquitous dominance of men, the fragility of justice and the backbone and heroism of one woman willing to stand alone in the service of truth. Based on actual episodes, the cinema undoes long-held presumptions about France’s last-place sanctioned confrontation between Jean de Carrouges and Jacques Le Gris, two friends turned acrimoniou competitors.

Carrouges is a respected gallant known for his courage and knowledge on the battlefield. Le Gris is a Norman squire whose ability and eloquence realise him one of “the worlds largest” revered aristocrats in court. When Carrouges’ wife, Marguerite, is viciously aggression by Le Gris, a charge he revokes, she refuses to stay silent, stepping forward to accuse her attack, an ordinance of mettle and disregard that throws her life in jeopardy. The ensuing trial by duel, a grueling confrontation to the death, residence the fate of all three in God’s hands.

The movie is based on Eric Jager’s work “The Last Duel: A True-life Story of Crime, Scandal, and Trial by Combat in Medieval France.” It is produced by Ridley Scott, Kevin J. Walsh( “Manchester by the Sea” ), Jennifer Fox( “Nightcrawler” ), Nicole Holofcener, Matt Damon, Ben Affleck with Kevin Halloran( “Ford v Ferrari” ), Drew Vinton( “Promised Land” ), Madison Ainley( “Justice League”) serving as manager producers.

The Last Duel, directed by Ridley Scott, arrived at the theaters on October 15, 2021.
