Just the other day we hit you all with the trailer for Michael J. Bassett’s SOLOMON KANE. And today we’ve got a new still for you all!
To celebrate it’s premiere this Wednesday as part of the Toronto International Film Festival’s Midnight Madness a new still from SOLOMON KANE has been making the rounds. Scope that shite out above. Not bad huh? Looks like we’ve got James Purefoy as the titular character. Very menacing. The film follows Solomon Kane. Kane is a mercenary of Queen Elizabeth I fighting in Africa, but after an encounter with a demon, The Reaper, he realizes he must seek redemption or have his soul damned to Hell. He returns to England and lives a life of peace, converting to puritanism, but soon the doings of an evil sorcerer upset his plans and he must take up arms again.
Along with Purefoy the film also stars Pete Postlethwaite, Max von Sydow, Mackenzie Crook, Alice Krige, and Rachel Hurd-Wood (below). No word on any kind of release date but KANE is working the festivals as we speak so check back for updates!
