MUSKETEERS Athos, Porthos and Aramis swashbuckled their way down the red carpet in London for the world premiere of "The Three Musketeers in 3D."
Actors Matthew Macfadyen (Athos), Ray Stevenson (Porthos) and Luke Evans (Aramis) were joined at Tuesday night's launch by Logan Lerman, who plays their hotheaded friend D'Artagnan, and a bevy of stars.
The family adventure - based on Alexandre Dumas' historical novel of the same name - sees the 17th-century band of heroes set out to defend the French Queen's honor and protect France from war.
Director Paul W.S. Anderson of "Resident Evil" fame said the themes of the book have stood the test of time, and that his version of the classic story is different to its predecessors.
"Love, honor, courage, friendship, these are classic themes that never go out of style," Anderson said. "But I think every generation deserves its own version of 'The Three Musketeers.' The story may stay the same, but the way it's executed and brought to the screen will always differ."
Anderson said that with the latest visual effects he was able "to bring to life 17th century Paris and London in a spectacular way that's never been able to be done before."
Largely shot on location in Bavaria, Germany, the film also stars former-model-turned actress Milla Jovovich, 35, who is married to Anderson.
