Despite helming Attack the Block in 2011 (and launching John Boyega's career in the process) writer-director Joe Cornish has been surprisingly absent from the big screen. That's all set to change with 2019's The Kid Who Would Be King though, which once again aims to blend blistering children's fantasy influences with a real mean genre streak.

About Alex, a young school kid who finds himself in control of excalibur, the teen and his friends are forced into battle with Morgana, a Medieval tyrant "hellbent on destroying the world." Courtesy of Empire magazine we now have our first look of the villain in action. The first poster, this time focusing on hero Alex, has also just dropped.
