The Da Vinci Code was met with largely negative critical response upon its release on May 19, 2006. In the book, Dan Brown insists that the Priory of Sion and ".all descriptions of artwork, architecture, documents and secret rituals in this novel are accurate". Two secret organizations, the Priory of Sion and the Council of Shadows, whose existence is a polarizing issue, figure prominently in the story. Many members urged the laity to boycott the film. It was met with especially harsh criticism by the Roman Catholic Church for the accusation that it is behind a two-thousand-year-old coverup concerning what the Holy Grail really is and the concept that Jesus Christ and Mary Magdalene were married and that the union produced a daughter. The Da Vinci Code film, like the book, was considered controversial. Also searching for the Grail is a secret cabal within Opus Dei, an actual prelature of the Holy See, who wishes to keep the true Grail a secret the revelation of this secret would certainly destroy Christianity. A noted British Grail historian, Sir Leigh Teabing, tells them the actual Holy Grail is explicitly encoded in Leonardo Da Vinci's wall painting, the Last Supper. He is pursued by a dogged French police captain, Bezu Fache. He escapes with the assistance of a police cryptologist, Sophie Neveu, and they are embroiled in a quest for the legendary Holy Grail. In the film, the primary protagonist, Robert Langdon, a professor of religious iconography and symbology from Harvard University is the prime suspect in the grisly and unusual murder of Louvre curator Jacques Saunière. The film stars Tom Hanks, Audrey Tautou, Ian McKellen, Alfred Molina, Jürgen Prochnow, Jean Reno, and Paul Bettany. The screenplay was written by Akiva Goldsman and adapted from Dan Brown's worldwide best-selling novel of the same name. The Da Vinci Code is a 2006 motion picture co- produced (with John Calley and Brian Grazer) and directed by Ron Howard. So how did these two finally get together? As it turns out, things drastically changed for the stars when tragedy struck.149 minutes (theatrical cut)174 minutes (extended version) "But I have very strong feelings about things that are right and things that aren't and that was all very clear." "Clearly we noticed each other and clearly we liked each other," Connelly told The Guardian. He told Entertainment Tonight that, at the time, he thought to himself, "I've never been this close to somebody that beautiful before." But things didn't work out as they were both in other relationships. When they finally did meet on the set of A Beautiful Mind, Bettany was just as enamored as ever. However, since they were both just teenagers at the time and wouldn't meet for another 14 years, he had a little bit of waiting to do. She also appeared in Labyrinth alongside David Bowie back in 1986, the project where Bettany first noticed and fell for the woman who would become his wife. As for Jennifer Connelly, she has had roles in 2000's Requiem for a Dream and 2001's A Beautiful Mind, to name a few works. Many know Paul Bettany from movies like 2001's A Knight's Tale, 2006's The Da Vinci Code, and 2010's Legion, not to mention the Marvel Cinematic Universe series, WandaVision.
