Together with the director of the film "King Arthur: Legend of the Sword", the actors and screenwriters were forced to fail at the box office with fees under the filming budget. Things weren't any better with critical reviews at the premiere.
About the film
According to the calculations of the producers and the film crew, on the project "King Arthur: The Sword" actors and roles were selected not for one tape, but for a whole series of films in continuation of the same theme. It was immediately planned to work on the continuation of the story of Camelot in a deadly siege. But the failure of the picture at the box office cast doubt on these calculations. It is unlikely that the producers are "burning with the desire" to take risks again, the audience is also not too worried about whether a sequel will be filmed.
It's hard to blame anyone on the crew for the failure, most of the responsibility lies with the director, but the negative reviews of the film also mention the acting and poor script. Claims are caused by the plot, staging and even special effects in the frame.
Of course, it was the director Guy Ritchie who felt the “weight” of the failure: the author of a huge number of cinematic masterpieces clearly “chased” the trends of audience demand and tried to pleasemass audience. As you can see, nothing came of it. After the premiere of the film "King Arthur of the Sword", the actors will remember 2017 for the biggest failure in their careers. Richie himself does not yet know if he will direct the sequel.
Charlie Hunnam
He played the main character in the picture. The ruler of Camelot, Arthur, in his performance did not cause much enthusiasm among critics - they criticized this role. But they also responded about everyone on this project. Hunnam can hardly blame himself for the failure.
On set, the directors relied on his formidable film background. By that time, the Englishman remained in demand as an actor for 18 years, he had accumulated dozens of major roles in his track record. On the project "King Arthur's Sword", the actors from among his filming partners noted Charlie's high professionalism in his work. Although he may not have a good film or theater school, Hunnam has been accumulating acting experience for almost 19 years.
Hunnam's biography
British citizen Charlie Hunnam was born in 1980 in a small English town. For greater success in his career, he will move to Los Angeles at the age of 19. As a child, the actor did not plan to play roles on the big screen. There is nothing in his biography that points to the future hero of films with a big budget. Hunnam was brought into the frame by the usual case and simple luck.
He was lucky to become an actor by accident: unlike most of his colleagues, Charlie did nothing at all for his future career success.
A guy with an outstanding appearance was shopping in one of the shops in his homeland, and at that moment someone from the film crew notices him in the process of selecting an actor for the main role. So the Englishman makes his debut on the big screen at the age of 18, later he will not waste his chance and develop success in his acting career even more.
Astrid Berger-Frisbee
For the film "King Arthur: The Sword", the actors and roles in it were supposed to be the most discussed topics among the audience, instead they had to suffer a painful setback at the box office. Among the rest, Astrid experienced failure especially painfully. This role could take her to the world level. The Frenchwoman played a magician, on the set of the film "King Arthur: The Sword" the actors considered Astrid the biggest discovery of cinema in the last few years. Her performance could be the key to the success of the project at the box office.
Astrid Berger-Frisbee was born in 1986 in Barcelona, but will grow up and be educated in Paris. Debuts on screen at 21, becomes an actress of her own free will.
Before participating in the Guy Ritchie project, the pinnacle of her career was the role in one of the films in the Pirates of the Caribbean series. After the failure of the story of King Arthur, Astrid is still one of the most promising actresses in the world. She is currently 31 years old.

At the age of 14, he will appear on the television screen in a child role, at the age of 17 he will play in two more projects.
