Considering David Yates' impressive track record with the Harry Potter film franchise, there's plenty of reason to be optimistic for his big summer release The Legend of Tarzan, which hits theaters this Friday. Could it be the big sleeper hit of the summer? In one week's time, we'll know. The film stars Alexander Skarsgård (True Blood) as the titular hero, Margot Robbie (Suicide Squad) as his lady love Jane, Samuel L. Jackson (Avengers: Age Of Ultron), Christoph Waltz (Spectre), Djimon Hounsou (Guardians of the Galaxy), John Hurt (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1 & 2), Jim Broadbent (Harry Potter 6 & 8), and Casper Crump (Legends of Tomorrow). Check out the six clips below:
Plus, here's over six minutes of B-roll footage:
It has been years since the man once known as Tarzan (Skarsgård) left the jungles of Africa behind for a gentrified life as John Clayton III, Lord Greystoke, with his beloved wife, Jane (Robbie) at his side. Now, he has been invited back to the Congo to serve as a trade emissary of Parliament, unaware that he is a pawn in a deadly convergence of greed and revenge, masterminded by the Belgian, Captain Leon Rom (Waltz). But those behind the murderous plot have no idea what they are about to unleash.
