Written by APOLLO 18’s Cory Goodman and based on the graphic novel series of the same name by Min-Woo Hyung, PRIEST is set in an alternate world—one ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampires. The story revolves around a legendary Warrior Priest (Bettany) from the last Vampire War who now lives in obscurity among the other downtrodden human inhabitants in walled-in dystopian cities ruled by the Church. When his niece (Lily Collins of THE BLIND SIDE) is abducted by a murderous pack of vampires, Priest breaks his sacred vows to venture out on an obsessive quest to find her before they turn her into one of them. He is joined on his crusade by his niece’s boyfriend (TWILIGHT’s Cam Gigandet), a trigger-fingered young wasteland sheriff, and a former Warrior Priestess (NIKITA’s Maggie Q) who possesses otherworldly fighting skills. PRIEST co-stars STAR TREK’s Karl Urban, CHILD’S PLAY’s Brad Dourif and TWIN PEAKS’ Mädchen Amick, along with TRUE BLOOD’s Stephen Moyer and WOLF’s Christopher Plummer.
