Spoilers ahead
Dorian Gray [Josh Duhamel] is a handsome young aristocrat who sits for a painting by his friend Basil Ward [Rainer Judd]; during the session, he meets Ward’s friend Lord Henry Wotton [Branden Waugh], whose provocative view of life centers on pleasure. What the gods give they quickly take away becomes a whispered idea that seeds Gray’s thoughts about himself and his world. This conversation pushes Gray toward a radical wish: he longs for his portrait to age while he remains forever young, a wish he quietly makes in the presence of an Egyptian cat statue said to hold magical powers.
