Looking forward to his diverse slate of films this year, Vin Diesel has just posted to his Facebook page a new image of his title character from the upcoming The Last Witch Hunter.
“It is rare thing,” the Guardians of the Galaxy star writes, “to have produced two movies with completely contrasting characters, come out in the same year… ‘Furious 7′ on April 3rd… ‘The Last Witch Hunter’ on October 23rd… However, exactly fifteen years ago, two movies were released in the same day, with entirely different characters… ‘Boiler Room’ and ‘Pitch Black’. Thanks for always believing in me… blessed, inspired… and I feel like I’m just getting started…”
Also starring Rose Leslie, Elijah Wood and Michael Caine, The Last Witch Hunter is directed by Breck Eisner (The Crazies) and follows an immortal witch hunter who partners with his natural enemy, a female witch (Leslie), to stop the covens of New York City from unleashing a plague on humanity.
Look for The Last Witch Hunter to hit the big screen October 23, 2015. Furious 7, meanwhile, has Diesel returning to the action franchise as part of an ensemble that also includes Paul Walker, Lucas Black, Tyrese Gibson, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Djimon Hounsou, Kurt Russell, Tony Jaa, Dwayne Johnson, Nathalie Emmanuel, John Brotherton and Iggy Azaela.
