Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures have released the first trailer for director Sergei Bodrov’s The Seventh Son, an adaptation of author Joseph Delaney’s “The Wardstone Chronicles,” the first volume in his young-adult series “The Spook’s Apprentice.”

Jeff Bridges stars as Master Gregory, a knight who centuries ago imprisoned the evil blood-witch Mother Malkin, played by the still bewitching Julianne Moore. When the witch escapes, Gregory must face her once again. Chronicles of Narnia’s Ben Barnes co-stars as Tom Ward, Gregory’s young apprentice.

Rounding out the cast are Kit Harington (“Game of Thrones”), Djimon Hounsou (The Island), Olivia Williams (Last Days on Mars), Antje Traue (Man of Steel) and Alicia Vikander (Anna Karenina). The film arrives in theaters on Jan. 17, 2014.
