Just last week, we ran a fascinating Noah featurette on how director Darren Aronofsky and his crew literally re-created the ark that Noah built in the bible to survive the great flood.

Today, we get to feature the first clip from Noah, starring Russell Crowe as the biblical hero, where he first presents his task to his family.

We love how he uses the phrase “our family has been chosen.” This is not simply his charge in life… it is all of theirs. 

From that first Noah trailer, we were compelled by this story. The fact that Black Swan director Aronofsky is behind it makes it even more appealing. Plus, we have to admit, Crowe’s casting as Noah is pretty spot-on!

Noah opens March 28 and also stars Jennifer Connelly, Anthony Hopkins, Emma Watson and Logan Lerman.
