The Last Witch Hunter, I knew it sounded familiar! We already had a little
chat about this project, remember? A year ago, we reported that
Breck Eisner is officially on board to helm the supernatural action movie for Summit Entertainment, with
Vin Diesel rumored as the lead. Now, we're here to report pretty much the same thing – Eisner is directing, Diesel is in talks to hunt some witches!
But you know, this news comes straight from
Deadline, who say that Diesel is now in early talks to star in the whole thing. If negotiations with
Fast & Furious star work out, he would come on board to play an immortal Witch Hunter, who:
…partners with a female witch (and his natural enemy by the way) to stop the covens of New York city from unleashing a plague on humanity.
Let us also add that
Cory Goodman stands behind
The Last Witch Hunter script and that the movie is set up through Summit Entertainment and Emmett/Furla.
Still sounds promising, so you better stay tuned for more updates!
