Riley Is Ivanhoe

British actor Sam Riley will play the lead in a new big screen adaptation of author Sir Walter Scott's
epic novel "Ivanhoe" says Screen Daily.


Set in 1194 after the failure of the Third Crusade, the action follows Wilfred of Ivanhoe, a Saxon who is out of favor with his father for his allegiance to the Norman king Richard I of England (aka Richard the Lionheart).

The pic is being shot on 65mm by director Iain Softley from a script adapted by John Brownlow and James Jacks.
