* HistoricalHeroUpgrade: The Watchers are depicted in the Apocrypha as angels who were entrusted with humanity's well-being, but sinned through their lust towards human women and sired children with them (the Nephilim, the principal cause and need for the Great Flood.) God even sent his greatest angels to hunt them down and punish them. The movie's vision removes these aspects of their character, leaving only their well-meaning duty to teach mankind about science and the workings of the world.

''Noah'' is an upcoming film directed by Creator/DarrenAronofsky and starring Creator/RussellCrowe, Creator/JenniferConnelly, Creator/LoganLerman, Creator/EmmaWatson, Ray Winstone, and Creator/AnthonyHopkins. It is a retelling of the Biblical story of Noah, who after seeing visions of a horrifying deluge, is inspired to build an ark to preserve life on Earth. Along the way, he faces resistance from fallen angels known as Nephilim, human armies lead by the villainous king Tubalcain, as well as tension within his own family and self-doubt about the worthiness of mankind to survive.
A passion project for Aronofsky, he had been working on various versions of the screenplay for years, even teaming up with Niko Henrichon to adapt his vision into a French-language graphic novel, "Noé: Pour la cruauté des hommes" ("Noah: For the Cruelty of Men") published in 2011. An English-language translation will be released alongside the movie.
The film will be released in America on March 28, 2013. Trailers can be seen [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qmj5mhDwJQ here]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrGGNaHblJQ here]], and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rS5t9Pswq9A here]].
!!Tropes Associated With This Film Include:
* CrapsackWorld: Earth prior to the flood
* DarkerAndEdgier: Than most biblical epics, and portrayals of the Noah story in particular.
* ExecutiveMeddling: Averted. Not wanting to upset the potential religious audience, the studio held many test screenings of different cuts of the movie without Darren Aronofsky's permission. Eventually, however, it was decided to go with Aronofsky's original cut.
* GreenAesop: In this version of the story, Man's reckless behavior towards the Earth is as much a provocation of the flood as his murderous nature towards man.
* PragmaticAdaptation: Drawing from both the Bible and Aronofsky's graphic novel.
* WhatMightHaveBeen:
** Creator/ChristianBale and Creator/MichaelFassbender were both offered the role of Noah.

It is a retelling of the Biblical story of Noah, who after seeing visions of a horrifying deluge, is inspired to build an ark to preserve life on Earth. Along the way, he faces resistance from fallen angels known as Nephilim, human armies lead by the villainous king Tubalcain, as well as tension within his own family and self-doubt about the worthiness of mankind to survive.
A passion project for Aronofsky, he had been working on various versions of the screenplay for years, even teaming up with Niko Henrichon to adapt his vision into a French-language graphic novel, "Noé: Pour la cruauté des hommes" ("Noah: For the Cruelty of Men") published in 2011. An English-language translation will be released alongside the movie.
The film will be released in America on March 28, 2013. Trailers can be seen [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qmj5mhDwJQ here]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrGGNaHblJQ here]], and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rS5t9Pswq9A here]].
!!Tropes Associated With This Film Include:
* CrapsackWorld: Earth prior to the flood
* DarkerAndEdgier: Than most biblical epics, and portrayals of the Noah story in particular.
* ExecutiveMeddling: Averted. Not wanting to upset the potential religious audience, the studio held many test screenings of different cuts of the movie without Darren Aronofsky's permission. Eventually, however, it was decided to go with Aronofsky's original cut.
* GreenAesop: In this version of the story, Man's reckless behavior towards the Earth is as much a provocation of the flood as his murderous nature towards man.
* PragmaticAdaptation: Drawing from both the Bible and Aronofsky's graphic novel.
* WhatMightHaveBeen:
** Creator/ChristianBale and Creator/MichaelFassbender were both offered the role of Noah.
