Director Scott Stewart is bringing us Legion, an upcoming fantasy-thriller film abou the apocalypse. The film is based on a script co-written by Scott Stewart and Peter Schink, and starring an ensemble cast headed by Paul Bettany. The movie is set for a release on January 22, 2010.
Here below the movie trailer of Legion:
Plot:
"After God loses faith in humanity, the archangel Michael (Paul Bettany) is the only one standing between mankind and the apocalypse. This time using angels as the act of Biblical judgment, God's wrath descends on Earth to exterminate the world's population. In a desperate, last-chance gambit, Michael leads a group of strangers to a small, New Mexico diner to protect a young waitress who may be pregnant with Christ in his second coming."
Cast:
- Paul Bettany as Michael, the archangel
- Dennis Quaid as Bob Hanson
- Tyrese Gibson as Kyle Williams
- Charles S. Dutton as Percy Walker
- Lucas Black as Jeep Hanson
- Kate Walsh as Sandra Anderson
- Adrianne Palicki as Charlie
- Kevin Durand as the angel Gabriel
- Willa Holland as Audrey Anderson
- Jon Tenney as Mr. Anderson (husband of Sandra)
Is God depicted as a villain in the movie Legion? Or rather a few angels imbued with their powers and jealous of Mankind? Anyway, the whole thing is a damn tempting movie. It's not so often that one can observe Angels using automatic machine guns after all! So count me on for the movie Legion!
