Somehow, I managed to read Noah: The Official Movie Novelization, as well as the Young Adult adaptation Noah: Ila’s Story, and Noah, the graphic novel adaptation all before ever seeing Darren Aronofsky’s feature film, starring Russell Crowe as the title character.

Each of the adaptations has their merits and I found that I enjoyed all three versions. But, which edition is best? Well, that would depend on what type of reader you are.

This weekend saw the theatrical release of Noah, the biblical epic from director Darren Aronofsky, who co-wrote the screenplay. The story goes in preparation for the Great Flood, Noah and his family must build an ark and gather into it enough animals so that every species will survive the disaster in order to go on to repopulate the Earth.

When it came to making Noah, the filmmakers had to pay great attention to the ark itself. Paramount Pictures has released a 4 1/2-minute featurette that gives a behind-the-scenes look on the making of the ark and includes interview footage with Aronofsky, actor Russell Crowe (who stars as Noah), and others, along with scenes from the film.

Check out the featurette here below.

Paramount Pictures has released online the Super Bowl XLVIII TV spot for Darren Aronofsky’s biblical epic Noah.

Check out the 35-second video here below.

Tune into FOX on Sunday night, February 2, 2014, during the Big Game to see the spot when it airs on television.

Noah, which opens in theaters on March 28, 2014, stars Russell Crowe, Emma Watson, Jennifer Connelly, Logan Lerman, Ray Winstone, Douglas Booth, Kevin Durand, Martin Csokas, Mark Margolis, and Anthony Hopkins.

Paramount Pictures has released the first trailer for Darren Aronofsky‘s Noah. The film is based on the biblical story of Noah, who built a giant ark and saved two of every animal and his family, while the rest of the world was purged by the Great Flood. The difference is that Noah is seen more as a builder in the Bible and Aronofsky is depicting the Biblical figure as a warrior. While this is the first time that the general public has seen footage, the trailer features footage that was presented at various religious conferences throughout the country.

There has been some conflict with Aronofsky and Paramount about the final edit of the film though. Test screenings have not been favorable, but those who have seen the film at religious conferences would probably tell you differently. Paramount has invested a fair amount of cash into Noah, which could turn out to be an epic hit or an epic failure depending on who gets the final cut. Hit the jump to see the trailer.

We’ve already seen the first official image of Russell Crowe in the upcoming biblical epic from Requiem for a Dream, The Wrestler, and Black Swan director Darren Aronofsky, titled simply Noah, and now comes a handful of new images to check out.

The new images include another look at Crowe in a poster-esque shot, and our first official look at the other stars of the movie, including Emma Watson, Anthony Hopkins, Jennifer Connelly, Ray Winstone, and Logan Lerman.

You can check out all of the new images from the movie below!
