Priest – 4 New Images

Paul Bettany must have liked working with Scott Stewart on Legion, and vice versa as the pair have now teamed up once again. This time another supernatural tale with a touch of the heavenly but instead of featuring avengeing angels it features a post-apocalyptic wasteland where the church rules what’s left of humanity after a centuries-long war against the vampires. Cheery stuff.

Based on Min-Woo Hying’s graphic novel of the same name, Priest sees Bettany don the cloak of a religous warrior known simply as Priest. The pictures paint a nice visual for the movie that seems to have drawn heavily on the source material (which is no bad thing).

The movie has an expected May/June 2011 release in Ireland and the UK. Here’s hoping that it’ll be better than Legion.
