Due out on the 22nd of June of next year, is Timur Bekmambetov's "Abraham Lincoln:Vampire Hunter"! A film adaptation of Seth Grahame-Smith's mashup novel. The pic is currently shooting in NOLA (New Orleans), and pictured below is one of two first ever stills to emerge from the set, of the upcoming movie. The image comes our way via onlocation vocations, and you can view the other still Here. "Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter" stars Robin McLeavy, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Benjamin Walker, Anthony Mackie, Jimmi Simpson, and Scoot McNairy. In the film...when Abraham Lincoln was nine years old, his mother died from an ailment called the "milk sickness." Only later did he learn that his mother's deadly affliction was actually the work of a local vampire, seeking to collect a debt owed by Lincoln's father.
When Abe learned the truth, he vowed revenge and kept one passion hidden throughout his life: the brutal elimination of all vampires. His valiant, bloody fight against the undead was all but lost to history, until Grahame-Smith stumbled upon The Secret Journal of Abraham Lincoln. Using the journal as his guide, Seth reconstructs Lincoln's life story and uncovers the role vampires played in the birth, growth, and near-death of our nation. You don't know Abe. Honest.
