Suddenly watching Karl Urban outside of anything Star Trek seems wrong. He so perfectly embodied the character of Doctor McCoy that I find myself revolted at the thought of watching his playing anyone else. It almost feels disloyal. I wonder if I’ll still be able to enjoy "Lord of the Rings," or for that matter, the upcoming comic book adaptation "Priest" in which THR says he’s been cast as the villain.

"Priest" is set in a post-apocalyptic future where the world has been blasted by a war between men and vampires. Paul Bettany is already set to play a warrior priest (what is it with his playing violent religious figures?) who teams up with a Sheriff and a warrior priestess to save his niece from garlic-haters. In particular he’ll be saving her from Karl Urban, as Black Hat, the nasty vampire leader.


He was great in LOTR, "Riddick," and "Star Trek," and pretty much everything he does so he'll do this excellently too.
