’90s Future on Display in New ‘Priest’ Poster

Published

on

Pinned as an international poster, I’ve actually seen the following Priest one sheet at bus stops across Los Angeles.

It displays Paul Bettany on a futuristic motorcycle that continues to carry that Matrix/Underworld ’90s feel.

Directed by Scott Charles Stewart for release on May 13 by Screen Gems, the story is set in a world ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampire and follows a warrior priest who turns against the church to track down a murderous band of vampires who have kidnapped his niece.

PS: It’s post-converted, so see it in 2-D.

Pictured: Zöe Bell in 'Death Proof'

A stuntwoman, stunt coordinator and actor, Zöe Bell (Kill Bill, Death Proof) is set to make her feature directorial debut with the thriller Free Fall, Variety has reported this morning.

Zachary Levi (Shazam) will star in the upcoming film. From XYZ Films, Free Fall “tells the story of a father’s attempt to reconcile with his estranged daughter on a rock-climbing trip that turns deadly as an accident leaves them stranded hundreds of feet in the air.”

Sean Finegan and Gregg Maxwell Parker wrote the screenplay.

“This script is the perfect combo of heartfelt and heart-stopping,” Zöe Bell said in a statement shared by Variety. “Between the producing team, the cast and the New Zealand crews, words don’t do justice to how thrilled I am to be bringing this film home.”

Producers Tom Hern and Nua Finau said, “We are stoked to be teaming up with the guys at XYZ again to help bring Zoë Bell’s feature debut to the world. Zoë’s an incredible talent and an iconic Kiwi. The script sets the table not only for her renowned action direction chops, but also plenty of heart and humanity.”

Navid McIlhargey and Erik Olsen are executive producing alongside Finegan, Parker and Levi.

As a stunt performer and stunt coordinator, Zöe Bell has worked on “Xena: Warrior Princess,” Kill Bill, Catwoman, Iron Man 3, Thor: Ragnarok, and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

Bell became a household name after essentially playing herself in Quentin Tarantino’s Death Proof, and she can also be seen in Angel of Death, The Hateful Eight and Malignant.
