Screen tests have begun for adaptation
When you envision an actor playing Abraham Lincoln, who do you immediately think of?
Is it Benjamin Walker, James D’Arcy, Adrien Brody, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Josh Lucas, or Timothy Olyphant? If so, well, you should be a goddamn casting agent!
That’s the short list of actors presenting vying for the role of Lincoln in Fox’s adaptation of Seth Grahame-Smith’s Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. These guys are reportedly heading in for screen tests this week and next.
Director Timur Bekmambetov and producer Tim Burton start rolling cameras very soon. Expect some solid casting news shortly.
