Agora-tastic?

Check out the teaser trailer for what is likely the next big epic film. Agora, set to release in December 2009, takes place in Roman Egypt and follows a young slave, Davus (Max Minghella of Art School Confidential fame), who falls in love with his master, female professor and atheist Hypatia (Rachel Weisz). Swelling operatic themes in the background and larger than life shots signal that Agora could be the next big thing. 

What are your thoughts? Does this look promising or will it fall flat?
