[WATCH] Second trailer released for 'Ben-Hur'

The second trailer has been released for the upcoming remake of "Ben-Hur."

The film tells the story of Jewish prince Judah Ben-Hur who is betrayed by his friend and adoptive brother Messala. Ben-Hur endures years of slavery before returning to challenge his brother to the famous chariot race in an attempt to seek vengeance.

Timur Bekmambetov's remake of the 1959 William Wyler classic now sees Jack Huston as Ben-Hur, in the role originally made famous by Charlton Heston, and Toby Kebbell as Messala, originally played by Stephen Boyd.

The film will also feature Rodrigo Santoro as Jesus and Morgan Freeman as Sheik Ilderim.
