Deadline reports that The Old Man and the Gun director David Lowery will be teaming up with acclaimed independent production company A24 again for the upcoming fantasy epic Green Knight.
Lowery will be producing the project Toby Halbrooks (Pete’s Dragon) and James M. Johnston (A Ghost Story).
The story was adapted into film twice before by Stephen Weeks, the first of which starred Nigel Green (Jason and the Argonauts) as the Green Knight and the second of which starred Sean Connery (From Russia With Love) as the titular knight.
Despite some later hesitation from Gawain, he ultimately accepted the returning blow in order to honor the deal and remain chivalrous and loyal to the king.
