Directors Matthieu Delaporte and Alexandre de La Patellière, the dynamic screenwriting duo behind last year’s Three Musketeers blockbusters, now take on Alexandre Dumas’s swashbuckling 19th century epic of lost love and single-minded vengeance and bring it to the big screen with a stellar ensemble cast and lavish production values. The tale begins with a heroic young first mate, Edmond Dantès (consummate French film star Pierre Niney), freshly promoted to ship’s captain and finally in a position to marry his secret love. However, on the very morning of their wedding day, Edmond is wrongfully arrested for a crime he knows nothing of — a plot hatched by three of the most ruthless of rivals— and shipped off to the formidable Château d’If prison, off the coast of Marseille… But the story certainly doesn’t end there, as filmmakers and author, alike, delve into a microscopic examination of the nature of revenge, justice, mercy and forgiveness.
