Stunning First Set Pictures From Steven Spielberg's War Horse Reveal Spielberg, Horse

After what seemed like an eternity directing Tintin, Steven Spielberg has returned to old-fashioned flesh-and-blood filmmaking. And as evidenced in these new photos dispatched from the set of his book adaptation War Horse, the movie is definitely about... a horse.

That is about all there is to say from behind the scenes in beautiful, bucolic Meavy, England, where Spielberg is on the scene with an ensemble including Jeremy Irvine, Emily Watson, Peter Mullan, David Thewlis and Tom Hiddleston. War Horse is an adaptation of Michael Morpurgo's children's novel about a horse conscripted into service during World War I and his equine longing for the young owner he leaves behind. Hottt, as you can clearly see from the new images making the rounds.

Also: Hay!
