The first trailer for the "The Golden Age" made its way onto YouTube this morning but was quickly removed by the studio. DarkHorizons, got a glimpse at the trailer, and here's what you can expect:

- Silhouettes of cardinals walking behind a giant English flag

- Dozens of ships in fog firing cannons

- Elizabeth consults Walsingham (Geoffrey Rush). She says "This Spanish armada is at sea with an army of... 10,000 men?" to which he responds "Their combined strength will overwhelm us."

- A distraught Elizabeth consults an elderly man who offers the advice "When the storm breaks, some are dumb with terror and some spread their wings like eagles and soar."

- Walter Raleigh (Clive Owen) introduces himself, the Queen dressed in yellow and wearing a huge floral headdress mockingly says "well well" and shoots a knowing look to a blond woman (Abbie Cornish).

- A scene with the Queen, in her full white garb, being held at gunpoint. Cuts to a gunman (Rhys Ifans) shooting, back to the Queen who graphically flinches and hands tremble.
