New image of Vin Diesel from Breck Eisner’s The Last Witch Hunter

We're still several months away from seeing Breck Eisner's THE LAST WITCH HUNTER arrive in theaters but I think we'll be seeing a trailer for this one pretty soon. While we await a good look at what to expect from the film we can always count on Vin Diesel to keep us updated with news and photos, and the star has now given us another look at his character Kaulder (and his magnificent beard) via his Facebook profile.

Every pic we've seen of Diesel from THE LAST WITCH HUNTER shows his immortal character clad in furs and sporting a manly beard, so I'm thinking these looks are from his characters past as the film is supposedly set in modern times. Or maybe Kaulder just sports that look all throughout history, which would be pretty badass. Until we get to see a trailer for this one we'll just have to keep speculating.

Rose Leslie, Elijah Wood and Michael Caine all star in THE LAST WITCH HUNTER. Here's the synopsis:

Five hundred years ago, war raged between humankind and witches, vicious supernatural creatures intent on unleashing the Black Death upon the world. Armies of witch hunters battled the unnatural enemy across the globe, including KAULDER (Vin Diesel), a valiant warrior who managed to slay an all-powerful QUEEN WITCH, decimating her followers in the process. In the moments before her death, the Queen exacted her revenge by cursing Kaulder with immortality, forever separating him from his beloved wife and daughter in the afterlife. Kaulder has spent centuries hunting down rogue witches, all the while yearning for his long-lost loved ones.

Today, he is the only one of his kind–the last witch hunter. With the help of FATHER DOLAN, a Catholic priest, and a mystical arsenal hidden beneath New York’s St. Patrick’s Cathedral, he continues to pursue the renegades and outlaws who endanger humanity. Chief among their adversaries is BELIAL, a powerful rebel witch who Kaulder believes has found a way to restore the Queen Witch to power and reignite her campaign to destroy the human world.

With the help of CHLOE, a goodhearted young witch, Kaulder sets out to stop Belial before he can set his plan in motion, but allies in unexpected places keep the evil witch one step ahead in a cunning cat-and-mouse pursuit that will determine the survival of the human race.

Mark Canton, Bernie Goldmann and Diesel are producing the movie, while Diesel's One Race partner Samantha Vincent will executive produce with Adam Goldworm. 

THE LAST WITCH HUNTER arrives to slay evil on October 23, 2015.
