From Joss Whedon, acclaimed Director of The Avengers: Assemble, and a stand out cast of Whedon's regular actors, comes this stunning new vision of Shakespeare's classic comedy Much Ado About Nothing, released on DVD and Blu-ray on 7th October 2013, courtesy of Kaleidoscope Home Entertainment.
Given a contemporary spin in Joss Whedon's film, using the original text, the story of sparring lovers Beatrice and Benedick offers a dark, sexy and occasionally absurd view of the intricate game that is love.
Leonato, the governor of Messina, is visited by his friend Don Pedro who is returning from a victorious campaign against his rebellious brother Don John. Accompanying Don Pedro are two of his officers: Benedick and Claudio.
Claudio falls for Leonato's daughter, Hero, while Benedick verbally spars with Beatrice, the governor's niece.
A series of comic and tragic events continue to keep the two couples from truly finding happiness, but then again perhaps love may prevail in the end!
