- THE LAST VOYAGE OF DEMETER
 |
| Viggo Mortensen |
The Last Voyage of the Demeter, a Dracula story, has Neil
Marshall (The Decent, Centerion) attached to direct it, Comingsoon.net reports.
Lord of the Rings star Viggo Mortensen has been offered the
lead role of Henry Clemens in the film. The news comes from Bloody-Disgusting
who also reports that Ben Kingsley is still attached to play the film’s
Captain.
Noomi Rapace was also attached to the film at one point in
time, however we not sure if she will still be involved in the film.
The story is described as being reminiscent of Ridley
Scott's Alien (Not Prometheus).
Bragi Schut wrote the script for the movie over a decade
ago.
Lowell Cauffiel wrote the most recent draft, and it tells
the story of the Demeter, the name of the ship that transported Dracula from
Transylvania to London in Bram Stoker's classic story.
In the novel, the ship washes up on the shores of England,
tattered and broken, with one raving mad survivor. The film will tell the tale
of that journey, in which a mysterious passenger slaughters the crew one-by-one.
