It has been many years since Aramis, Athos, Porthos and d'Artagnan fought
together as the bravest and best of the King's Royal Guards, the Musketeers,
with a passion and valor that has become legend.
Athos (John Malkovich) lives a simple life raising his son Raoul. Porthos
(Gérard Depardieu), though thicker and older, still eats lustily
of life, though he misses the great battles of the past. Aramis (Jeremy
Irons) has followed his faith and become a priest. Only d'Artagnan still
serves the King as Captain of the Musketeers.
It is 1660 and France is starving. Louis XIII, the great King whose throne
the Musketeers served has died and been succeeded by his arrogant and cruel
heir, King Louis XIV (Leonardo DiCaprio) ... while at the Bastille a mysterious
prisoner has lived for nearly a decade encased in an iron mask.
To save a nation, the Musketeers must reunite and embark on their most dangerous
mission ever: to free the prisoner and unlock the secret of his identity.
Only through this act of mercy will they realize their dream of finding
and serving one great king -- for the enigmatic prisoner, for the kingdom
that was and will be again, and for each other.
