The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen - Video trailer streams

Sean Connery stars as Allan Quatermain, the world's greatest adventurer, employed by the British Government to lead a legion of superheroes the likes of which the world has never seen, in THE LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN.

Quatermain's extraordinary League is comprised of Captain Nemo (Naseeruddin Shah), Dracula vampiress Mina Harker (Peta Wilson), an invisible man Rodney Skinner (Tony Curran), American secret service agent Sawyer (Shane West), Dorian Gray (Stuart Townsend), and Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde (Jason Flemyng). Richard Roxburgh (Moulin Rouge) plays the League's enigmatic recruiter, M.

The League members are staunch individualists, outcasts in fact, with checkered pasts and singular gifts that have been both blessing and curse. Now they must learn to trust each other and work as a team for the very hope of civilization. With little preparation and no time to lose, they will be transported via Captain Nemo's extraordinary submarine, the Nautilus, to the frontline of defense: Venice, Italy.

There, a masked madman known as the Fantom plans to sabotage a conference of world leaders by setting off a domino chain of explosions, sinking the entire city. The threat is catastrophic, the risks are staggering. The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen has 9 hours to save the world.

THE LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN's demanding visual elements required 58 different sets, not including the numerous miniature scale sets built in Los Angeles, and the several hundred visual effects and green screen shots that created new environments, or expanded the size and scope of existing physical sets.

Among the largest and most significant environments created by production designer Carol Spier are the famed Nautilus submarine, Captain Nemo's hyper technologically advanced underwater palace, and an enormous cityscape exterior of facades and rooftops of Venice, London and Paris. More than 200 construction workers were dedicated to this set alone.
