Olga in Centurion

Olga Kurylenko, Dominic West and Michael Fassbender have signed on to star in CENTURION, the upcoming thriller from writer/director Neil Marshall (THE DESCENT). The synopsis confused me slightly so instead of trying to recap the synopsis and jumbling it all up, I’ll just paste it here for your reading pleasure:

Set during the Roman invasion of Britain in AD 117, details the story of Quintus Dias, sole survivor of a Pictish raid on a Roman frontier fort, who marches north with General Virilus’ legendary Ninth Legion, under orders to wipe the Picts from the face of the earth and destroy their leader Gorlacon.

After a disastrous outing with his first studio effort DOOMSDAY (and I mean from a critical and commercial standpoint; I actually didn’t hate the film), Marshall is headed back to work independently. He’s reteaming with Pathe and Celador, the production companies with whom he made THE DESCENT. And for those of you who say I posted this story just to stare at that pic of Olga, you win a prize.
