Sony Screen Gems PRIEST Will Be Battling Vampires In S3D!!

Jim here. It has been a very busy week in S3D! Now comes word from erc BoxOffice (via ComingSoon) that Sony Screen Gems will be pushing back the Paul Bettany / Karl Urban thriller PRIEST from August 20 to January 14, 2011 to allow it to be released in S3D.

The movie is about a warrior priest (Bettany) who disobeys Church law by teaming with a young sheriff (Cam Gigandet) and a beautiful priestess (Maggie Q). The three band together to track down a band of renegade vampires who have kidnapped the priest's niece before they turn her into one of them.

ComingSoon also said that UNDERWORLD4 has been delayed as well from January 21, 2011 to September 23, 2011 - and then very casually said that it appears it will no longer be shot in 3D. HUH? That does not hold water with me at all - they did not give a source for this rumor either, unless it is erc BoxOffice.

More on this when I can gather it. Looking forward to PRIEST - it sounds like a great comic book to bring over to S3D!
