We scored some pretty incredible news this afternoon as we've learned exclusively that the great Christopher Lee has landed the role of "August" in Hammer Films' The Resident, which we're told could be retitled to Invasion Of Privacy. He will star alongside the previously announced cast of Hilary Swank and Jeffrey Dean Morgan in the film set to be directed by Antti Jokinen this June in New Mexico. Lee initially portrayed villains and became famous for his role as Count Dracula in a string of early Hammer Horror films. He's also starred in Wicker Man, Gremlins 2, Sleepy Hollow and 8 million other films. In The Resident, Swank will play a doctor who moves into a Brooklyn loft. Becoming suspicious that she's not alone in her new home, she discovers her landlord is a stalker.

Christopher Lee is a true horror icon.Hammer films are as well.Appreciate and support this great actors work while he's still here.He's on a level that only Vincent Price could match when it comes to horror.

Perfectly stated REMEMBER SLITHIS. Lee will always be my favorite Count. The Hammer films of the late 50's and throughout the 60's are some of my all time classic horror favs. Good to hear he's STILL making movies. He must be 80 by now ?

Had no interest in this film at all before. But now I'm so there. Lee is the man.

Christopher Lee is a legend. So is/was Vincent Price. They both made some great horror films and it is wonderful that Lee is still doing films. Even better now that he has returned to his roots with Hammer Films. Wonderful news!
