Screen Gems has launched an
official website for the film adaptation of the TokyoPop manga
Priest, which carries the first glimpse of
Paul Bettany in the film, opening August 13th 2010 (Sept. in the U.K.) Set in a world ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampire, Bettany plays a warrior priest who turns against his Church to take down the blood suckers who have kidnapped his niece. Either the movie hasn't finished casting yet, or
IMDB is just slow as hell for this movie... but they only have
Cam Gigandet down to co-star so far.
Scott Stewart, director of Bettany's upcoming
Legion directs.
