With the first trailer for the upcoming film Blood Diamond starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Djimon Hounsou, Jennifer Connelly and James Purefoy, we have finally updated our movie database.
To show off this impressive cast as an entire unit, The Weinstein Company has sent over a, well, impressive movie still.
Blood Diamond Movie Trailer
Set against the backdrop of civil war and chaos in 1990s Sierra Leone, Blood Diamond is the story of Danny Archer (Leonardo DiCaprio), a South African mercenary, and Solomon Vandy (Djimon Hounsou), a Mende fisherman. Both men are African, but their histories as different as any can be, until their fates become joined in a common quest to recover a rare pink diamond that can transform their lives. While in prison for smuggling, Archer learns that Solomon - who was taken from his family and forced to work in the diamond fields - has found and hidden the extraordinary rough stone. With the help of Maddy Bowen (Jennifer Connelly), an American journalist whose idealism is tempered by a deepening connection with Archer, the two men embark on a trek through rebel territory, a journey that could save Solomon's family and give Archer the second chance he thought he would never have.
Blood Diamond
The international trailer is very impressive, and so is Leonardo DiCaprio's accent for that matter. The trailer also makes it a point to state that Blood Diamond is from the same people that brought us Glory and The Last Samurai; kudos to that as well. There is a lot to like -- action, characters, drama, romance and suspense. So check out the trailer for Blood Diamond over at iKlipz.
