An Officer And A GentlemanAmerican GigoloChicagoKing Arthur DeadlinePacific Rim July 2016 release. This is the furthest that studio Warner Bros has gotten in their repeated process of trying to make a King Arthur film, but judging how the 2004 version with Clive Owen did, you can kind of see why they've been a little shy to break out the swords.
