'Noah' Trailer Weaves Intense Biblical Story of Survival

The first full-length trailer of Noah shows nearly the whole scope of the biblical tale: Noah's dream that a flood is coming, building an ark, animals flocking inside the finished vessel and the ship thrashing about in a storm threatening to end mankind.

Noah, whose title character is played by Russell Crowe, will have an undercurrent of violence. The video depicts an army of men who try to board the ark through brute strength, only to be assaulted by forces unseen. Apparently, God isn't on their side.

But Noah also speaks of "new life" in the trailer. His adopted daughter, played by Emma Watson, asks, "Is this the end of everything?" Noah responds, "The beginning." The movie also stars Jennifer Connelly and Saoirse Ronan.

The Paramount Pictures film, from Black Swan director Darren Aronofsky, will hit theaters on March 28. This trailer comes just one day after Paramount released a teaser and poster.
