Just the other day I showed you a trailer for the new epic SOLOMON KANE, and today I bring you (via MTV) a brief featurette about the James Purefoy-led adventure.
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.
SOLOMON KANE stars James Purefoy, Pete Postlethwaite, Max von Sydow, Mackenzie Crook, Alice Krige, and Rachel Hurd-Wood. It was directed by Michael J. Basset, and has it’s world premiere tonight at the Toronto Film Festival. It still doesn’t have a set release date, but maybe that will change after Toronto gets a look at it…
