This contemporary version of King Lear boasts an impressive ensemble cast led by Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson. Set in the fictional present, King Lear sets Hopkins as the eponymous ruler, presiding over a totalitarian military dictatorship in England. Thompson stars as his eldest daughter Goneril with Emily Watson as the middle daughter Regan, and Florence Pugh as the youngest Cordelia. The 80-year-old King Lear divides his kingdom among his daughters according to their affection for him. When his youngest daughter, Cordelia, refuses to flatter him, hurt and angry Lear banishes her. With that fateful decision, family and state collapse into chaos and warfare. (Cinemax)
