Roxanne subsequently falls in love with Christian's beautiful words… despite them coming from Cyrano. The first-look exclusive clip shows Cyrano's skills as a swordsman as well as his unwavering love for Roxanne, sadly saying that "the world will never accept someone like me and a tall, beautiful woman".

The new clip also reveals the film's director, Joe Wright, describing the hero of the tale. He explained: "Cyrano is a flawed hero. He has inordinate courage, he's witty and brilliant and he's desperately in love with Roxanne." Peter added: "Cyrano has this reputation of being the greatest swordsman but his Achilles heel is that he doesn't fully believe that he can be loved by her."
