The second clip had Grant welcoming three groups of adventurers, including the threesome above, to a contest in Neverwinter, where they raced through a maze to escape a displacer beast. They just want to play and have a laugh,” said Pine. Pine didn’t discover the game until he was 42, when the filmmakers sent him a package of D&D games. The trailer went further: “We’re a team of thieves, when you do this you’re bound to make enemies, and sometimes those enemies come looking for revenge,” says Pine’s lead warrior. “We tried to do it with Sense & Sensibility, but we were turned away,” joked Grant about that Ang Lee movie’s attempt to join the confab. The filmmakers told Hall H that they were lifelong fans of the game.

Learn everything you need to know about the D&D movie monsters.

What is it? A very bizarre-looking animal, a displacer beast is a giant, vicious, cat-looking monster with two tentacles coming out of its back. Many times, adventurers find weapons and bones inside of it. What is it? This is a little bit of a cheat as Sophia Lillis's tiefling druid character is casting Wild Shape in order to turn from a horse to an owlbear. No, they weren't in the trailer, but that's an example of what you can see.

The new trailer from San Diego Comic-Con shows our adventurers attempting to right a wrong they made last session.

On the panel were the film’s producer Jeremy Latcham and directors Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley, all of whom are avid Dungeons & Dragons players. Also at the con is a “Tavern Experience” where fans could get an up-close look at the characters of the film. The trailer shows a team of thieves who have accidentally stolen “the wrong thing for the wrong person,” and accidentally unleashed “the greatest evil the world has ever known.” Which, honestly, sounds about right for a Dungeons & Dragons campaign.

The new Paramount Dungeons & Dragons movie, Honor Among Thieves, is surprisingly faithful to the D&D experience.

I mean, it could still be terrible—I’m jaded enough to not get my hopes up too high—but this trailer is definitely a pleasant surprise. I did make it to both the Severance and Dragon Prince panels Thursday and am sallying forth to many more today. Ben Stiller, at the Severance panel, was revealed to also be a Comic-Con virgin. So, in very broad strokes, this looks like the kind of campaign where the Dungeon Master (or DM) has tried pretty hard to craft a serious story only for the players to basically turn it into a running gag. The Chris Pine-led adventure film appears to actually understand and appreciate what an actual session of Dungeons & Dragons tabletop gaming is like. . . . D&D nerds?

Both games have Intellect Devourers, but the art is slightly different between D&D and Pathfinder.

It seems BossLogic might not be enough of a D&D fan to have known the difference between Pathfinder and D&D monsters. The one you see in the poster is actually from Pathfinder, not D&D. There’s plenty of Dungeons & Dragons references in the trailer to satisfy even the most ardent D&D fan, but those fans might have noticed something a little strange about one of the movie’s posters.

"We didn't mean to unleash the greatest evil the world has ever known."

The Comic-Con panel featured an unfinished clip from the film showing the troupe on a quest for the Helmet of Destruction, which involves digging up corpses in order to question them. Said charming thief is Elgin, a bard, played by Chris Pine, who admits in the trailer that, as a thief, one is bound to make a few enemies and sometimes those enemies decide to take revenge. Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is scheduled to hit theaters on March 3, 2023. As for Elgin, "I'm a planner," he tells Doric. "I make plans. Eventually, Hasbro moved the project to Paramount, shooting for a July 2021 release, and hired John Francis Daley and Jonathon Goldstein to write and direct. The film is a reboot of the film trilogy that launched with Dungeons & Dragons (2000). That film bombed at the box office, earning just over $33 million globally against its $45 million budget.

The much-loved game is coming back to the big screen with "Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves."

It's got a lot of thrills. Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is coming to theaters on Friday, March 3. It's a lot of fun. Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves sports a star-studded cast. When Is Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves Out? Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves has an official premiere date of Friday, March 3, 2023.

The Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves trailer released at SDCC 2022 features all the magic, creatures and locations fans will recognize.

The team of thieves can be seen venturing into the Underdark and navigating the vast underground cities in search of the sorcerer's helmet. This subterranean realm is home to creatures who have never seen the light of day, such as aboleths, mind flayers, and gray dwarves. Upon its conceptualization for the film, the prison was added to the 2020 game update, with stories and encounters that take place within its walls. Three enchanted weapons are shown in the trailer, including a Flame Tongue Ax, being wielded by the fierce Barbarian, and a Green Flame Blade. Additionally, a powerfully enchanted helmet with yet to be revealed powers is found in the Underdark and worn by the party’s sorcerer. The statues may have once been the Walking Statues of Deepwater, ethereal guardians created to protect the city's vaults, fortresses and temples. In a battle within the forest, the Tiefling can be seen turning into one of these powerful monsters and destroying the human soldiers who stand in her way, throwing them about like ragdolls. It is presumed that this Lich will be the main villain in the Honor Among Thieves story, as the powerful sorcerer uses its new, terrifying powers to the chantings of a cult-like crowd, and red vine-like shapes spill into the air surrounding them. A Gold Dragon is seen ferociously roaring in the face of the bard, though some speculate this is not a true Gold Dragon, but a Stone Golem carved to look like one. Displacer Beasts have a similar build to that of a large black panther, though this monster has six legs as well as two tentacles rooted in its back, used to grab, drag and thrash those it hunts. Though, they have emotional and moral range, as well as the ability to be any class, such as Druid, Mage or Fighters, they aren’t tied to the ongoings of the realms below. The bard is joined by Michelle Rodruigez (The Fast and the Furious), who takes on the role of a powerful, Flame Tongue ax wielding barbarian, and Justice Smith (Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom) who will portray a sorcerer with a few enchanted tricks up his sleeve. He is seen wearing a pin with the symbol of the Harpers upon his lapel, signaling that he may be part of the secret Sword Coast faction dedicated to good and the preservation of history.
