Priest_teaser_posterYou loved him in Star Trek, you probably barely noticed him in Doom, but Karl Urban is definitely sticking like glue to the whole science fiction / fantasy thing these days.  In fact, he’s just been tapped for a whole new role in this same bent, of sorts–he’ll be playing Black Hat, the lead vampire role in the upcoming film Priest.

Priest takes the whole post-Apocalyptia concept to new and interesting extremes by placing the world at war between men and vampires, like Karl Urban’s upcoming Black Hat.

It’s not a terrible idea, this; he’s definitely got the chops to handle post-apocalypse vampires.  I mean, he went blasting demons on Mars not so long ago, so why not?  And considering that he’ll be joined by Paul Bettany as the title character, he’s in such good company that I can’t help but think this will turn out well, when it finally gets released in the good long future.
