''The Legend of King Naresuan'' ((タイ語:ตำนานสมเด็จพระนเรศวรมหาราช); ) is a Thai biographical historical drama film about King Naresuan the Great, who ruled Siam from 1590 until his death in 1605. The films are directed by Chatrichalerm Yukol and are a followup to his 2003 film, ''The Legend of Suriyothai''. Part I, ''Hongsawadee's Hostage'', was released on January 18, 2007. Part II, ''Reclaiming Sovereignty'', was released on February 15, 2007. Part III was released on March 31, 2011. The films were released in the U.S. under the titles ''Kingdom of War.'' Part I deals with Naresuan's boyhood, when he was taken hostage by Burmese King, King Bayennaung (King Bureagnong) to keep the vassal Ayutthaya Kingdom subservient. During this time, he was a novice Buddhist monk under the tutelage of a wise father-figure monk (Sorapong Chatree). Part II depicts Naresuan as a young adult prince, already a formidable military strategist, as he leads his army on exploits against breakaway kingdoms for King Bayinnaung's successor, King Nonthabureng, and eventually breaks away to declare sovereignty for Siam. Part III was to depict Naresuan's military and leadership skills and the expansion of the Siamese kingdom. In production for more than three years, the project has an estimated budget of 700 million baht, making it the most expensive Thai film made.〔Na Talang, Jeerawat.
