Vin Diesel is set to come off the success of Furious 7 (of which the dust/money probably still hasn’t even settled) with the upcoming fantasy thriller The Last Witch Hunter. The first trailer and teaser poster have been revealed. You can check both out below. Watching that trailer, I got kind of a Highlander and Blade vibe. I hope it turns out to be as interesting as those two.
SYNOPSIS:
The modern world holds many secrets, but the most astounding secret of all is that witches still live amongst us; vicious supernatural creatures intent on unleashing the Black Death upon the world. Armies of witch hunters battled the unnatural enemy across the globe for centuries, including KAULDER, a valiant warrior who managed to slay the all-powerful QUEEN WITCH, decimating her followers in the process. In the moments right before her death, the QUEEN curses KAULDER with her own immortality, forever separating him from his beloved wife and daughter in the afterlife. Today KAULDER is the only one of his kind remaining, and has spent centuries hunting down rogue witches, all the while yearning for his long-lost loved ones. However, unbeknownst to KAULDER, the QUEEN WITCH is resurrected and seeks revenge on her killer causing an epic battle that will determine the survival of the human race.
