Which is perfectly fine - it'll likely do fairly well for itself and as with so many things if someone happens to dislike it they can just avoid going to see it.
So a movie about Norsemen and Vikings punching their way through Valhalla and fighting with Valkyries and riding Hresvelgr with a cast of nothing but black people with Bostonian accents wouldn't be weird to you then.
Because that's what this is.
Would I find that weird? Sure. That's a bit more extreme than what's going on in the trailer for the movie though.
