In the 2014 film Noah, who played Noah, the ark builder?

In the 2014 film Noah, Russell Crowe played Noah, the ark builder.

Directed by Darren Aronofsky, Noah is a biblical epic inspired by the story in the Book of Genesis. Russell Crowe portrays the central character, while Jennifer Connelly plays Noah’s wife, Naameh, and Anthony Hopkins plays Methuselah.

The film expands substantially on the biblical account, adding fantasy elements, original characters, and dramatic plot developments. Its depiction of Noah and the Flood is therefore an adaptation rather than a scene-by-scene presentation of Genesis.

The movie was released in 2014 and was written by Aronofsky and Ari Handel. It also features Emma Watson as Ila and Logan Lerman as Ham, giving the production a prominent international cast.
