Charlie Hunnam and Jamie Dornan are pitted against each other again. This time, for the role of King Arthur, rumors suggest. 

The "Sons of Anarchy" lead star Hunnam is the choice of director Guy Ritchie for the titular role in the upcoming "King Arthur" movie Warner Bros will offer, stated Deadline. Specifically, the 34-year-old hunk actor is in final talks of playing the role of the iconic character.

According to Screenrant, the most recent "King Arthur" features the character in his older years - played by Hollywood A-lister Clive Owen. This puts into perspective the possibility that Guy Ritchie's version of the story will also feature a mature King Arthur since Hunnam is almost in his mid-30s.

The actress who gets the female lead role is reportedly Elizabeth Olsen, stated Variety. It isn't clear which particular character Olsen will be portraying but rumors suggest it'll beGuinevere. Idris Elba is also reported to be in negotiations to play the mentor role of King Arthur. It was not stated either whether the role would be that of Merlin or a similar type of character.

A source said that the "Fifty Shades of Grey" lead actor, Jamie Dornan, was supposed to headline Ritchie's "King Arthur" flick but had to pass up due to his jam-packed schedule. Dornan is all tied up to finish two more sequel movies for the "Fifty Shades of Grey" novels.

It's interesting how the tables have turned for both actors when recalling how Jamie Dornan was the one who replaced Hunnam for the portrayal of Christian Grey.

Other actors who were reported to have read for the "King Arthur" role include Henry Cavill and Jai Courtney of "Die Hard 5," wrote Entertainment Wise.

Joby Harold is in charge of screenplay for "King Arthur" while Akiva Goldsman penned the script. The movie will be produced by Tory Tunnell.

There were no details revealed about the movie plot yet but Warner Bros. is set to release the film on July 22, 2016.
