Chris Pine is about to revive another franchise after securing a lead role in the new Dungeons & Dragons movie. The fantasy tabletop role-playing game was originally designed by Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson and has been around since the mid-'70s. The game has been published by Hasbro subsidiary Wizards of the Coast since 1997. A feature film adaptation of Dungeons & Dragons starring Jeremy Irons and Thora Birch was released in 2000 and now lives in infamy as a box office bomb.
