A few set photos from the Irish set of Starz’s Camelot have hit the internet. You can view hi-res candids of the lovely Eva Green as Morgana at EvaGreenWeb.com. There is also a small picture of Jamie Campbell-Bower (Arthur), Joseph Fiennes (Merlin), and Peter Mooney (Kay) at this website. The new series is expected to air in the first half of 2011. The article also lists the new actors involved, including Philip Winchester and James Purefoy.
The cast also includes Philip Winchester (“Crusoe”) as Leontes, Sebastian Koch (The Lives of Others) as King Uther and James Purefoy (“Rome”) as King Lot.
So excited! Most of these actors from from shows and series I love… Tamsin Egerton from The Mists of Agalon, Eva Green from Kingdom of Heaven, James Purefoy from Rome… Crusoe Can’t wait!
I read one person say they loved Merlin and didn’t want to bother with Camelot. I personally would watch Camelot BECAUSE I love anything Arthur related. Merlin is a family show and a lot of stuff is watered down. It’s fun and enjoyable for everyone and it’s interesting to see how they’ll interpret various legends to make them kid-safe. However, the Arthur stories are really dark… and I’m glad a network like Starz has a show like Camelot where they can explore things like Guinevere’s and Lancelot’s affair or the incest with Mordred without having to censor it. And judging by all the actors involved, this adaptation looks impressive so far!
yeah i like Merlin but sometimes it gets a little to cheesy for me. and i don’t really like how they take a little more liberties with Merlin, like when the cast Angel as Guinevere at first i was not happy because Guinevere is suppose to be Beautiful and i didn’t think she possessed that quality. however after season 2 i came to like her,and i hope they make her look a little more pretty.
i am really liking Starz Original series Spartacus was so amazing and such a breakout! Now they are doing Camelot and i know they will do it right. also i like that they are basing it off Sir Thomas Malory version.
