Confidential), and stars Heath Ledger (The Patriot), Mark Addy (The Full Monty), and Rufus Sewell (Bless the Child, Cold Comfort Farm). sA Knight's Tale is the rousing story of fearless squire William Thatcher (Heath Ledger), softhearted Roland (Mark Addy), hot-headed Wat (Alan Tudyk), Kate the blacksmith (Laura Fraser), an itinerant writer named Geoff Chaucer (Paul Bettany), an exceedingly fair maiden (Shannyn Sossamon), and archrival Count Adhemar (Rufus Sewell).
