Anthony Hopkins' 'Methuselah' Graces Final NOAH Character Poster

Well, unless they're planning on giving the Ark one I guess. Empire have debuted the seventh character poster for Darren Aronofsky's biblical epic, featuring Thor: The Dark World's Anthony Hopkins as Noah's grandfather, Methuselah. Take a look after the jump.

NOAH is a close adaptation of the Biblical story of Noah’s Ark. In a world ravaged by human sin, Noah is given a divine mission: to build an Ark to save creation from the coming flood. The screenplay was written by Darren Aronofsky and Ari Handel and revised by Academy Award®-nominated screenwriter John Logan (GLADIATOR, HUGO). Scott Franklin and Aronofsky of Protozoa Pictures, along with Mary Parent of Disruption Entertainment, will produce the film. The film will be executive produced by Ari Handel (BLACK SWAN), Arnon Milchan of New Regency and Chris Brigham (INCEPTION, ARGO).


Noah is directed by Darren Aronofsky, and stars Russell Crowe, Jennifer Connelly, Emma Watson, Ray Winstone, Logan Lerman, Douglas Booth and Anthony Hopkins. It hits theaters March 28th, 2014.

Wish they would have made a Methuselah film instead.

Everyone already knows Noah's but few understand his Grandfather.

Dumb story = Dumb Movie. Given the budget, what else could have been made with this talent & time?

He's way too young to play Methuselah.

For all those of you bringing the Christian faith into this, you realize the flood story predates Judeo-Christian religions, tracing its source back to Sumerian times, right?

ODIN is JOR-EL'S grandad, the joker and robin went to high school together, and luthor and peter parker went to harvard together.

@commie gray


We all (belivers and non) are aware that flood legends existed before the bible as we have it was written


That is the furthest thing from the point.

"Doc savage" predates superman, and we don't kvetch about there being superman movies
(Well TRUDY and sackmode and reallyreamsboys and Mac and grid do buthey don't count as they don't have souls)
"The shadow" predates batman but we don't kvetch about batman movies being made (except see the above list of soulless asshats)
So an archetype of a story may have precursors but that doesn't mean we have to ignore a particular version
If aranofsky made a movie about utnapishtim or zisusudra no one would know what it is about

We shouldn't be to hard on bravado -

It DID take him all day to put that 8 piece ELMO jigsaw puzzle together and then aranofsky came in and kicked his card table over.
Guess I'd be pissed too.

I like fleetwood Mac and rusted root

The biggest difference is Mac is very articulate and sophisticated whearas rusted root sounds fun and bouncy musically but the singer, while charming , is an inarticulate mushmouth neo hippy.

@Bravado: Well those religious people better watch out. Soon we will be in the majority and (fingers crossed) we will be able to give them a taste of their own medicine...

What is a "militant" atheist? Either you're an atheist or you're not (these namby-pamby individuals who say, "If that person is happy believing in fairy tales, why not let them" are not true atheists), and if you are then you should be behind any and all measures to rid the world of religion.

@zilla: The backward morality goes hand in hand with the belief. Saying you're happy with people believing whatever they want makes no sense because in fact it is the PARENTS indoctrinating children with THEIR beliefs which are regurgitated onto the next generation and thus the cycle continues. There is no free will involved. The only reason any person believes such nonsense is because the ideas were forced upon them as a child.

This is why I believe religion should be banned. It is child abuse pure and simple.

ProfessorX - 2/19/2014, 12:50 PM
Extreme... or efficient? The quicker we purge the world of religion the more children will be saved.
ProfessorX
ProfessorX - 2/19/2014, 1:08 PM
I'm not proposing people are forced to believe in anything. I'm proposing that religion is banned so that people are free from the constraints of believing. As rational people free from the talons of religion, I believe it is our duty to save all those who have been indoctrinated and continue to be indoctrinated all over the world.

@Godzillafart The Right may have a problem with Science but the Left seems to have a problem with the Constitution these days. Both sides are guilty of pushing their believes on the others and witch hunts. There are extremes on both sides. Which is worse the worship of a made up being or the State?

@BlackKnight42 It sounds like you are trying to create your own oppressive religion.
