Check out this powerful, extended clip from 20th Century Studios’ historical action thriller “The Last Duel” directed by Ridley Scott, which opens exclusively in theatres nationwide October 15, 2021.
“The Last Duel” is a gripping tale of betrayal and vengeance set against the brutality of 14th century France. A cinematic and thought-provoking drama set in the midst of the Hundred Years War, the film explores the ubiquitous power of men, the frailty of justice, and the strength and courage of one woman willing to stand alone in the service of truth.
