A new U.S. theatrical poster for director Scott Stewart's (Legion) latest movie, Priest, was recently released, and now a new international poster for the movie has also been released. Check it out!



Priest is based on the manhwa (Korean for "comic book" or "print cartoon") by Min-Woo Hyung and takes place in a "retro-futuristic" world populated by Jedi-like Priests in opposition to the forces of darkness personified by vampires and their sub-human slaves. Paul Bettany, Cam Gigandet, Stephen Moyer, Karl Urban, and Maggie Q star.

Here's the latest trailer, in case you haven't already seen it:



Priest opens May 13th!

Trailer look good. Better than most of the "I CAME" trailers. I see there's a bias against non-mainstream-comicbook movies here. Understandable I guess.

@NeoBaggins: Priest IS a comic book movie. It was first published in Korea.

@ neobaggins

its based on a manga so techinally its a comic book movie but just another bad adaption.

@ teabag

i've seen legion,they f*cked up so many good ideas with that film. i.e the scary ice cream guy with the long arms,the potty mouthed granny & the promise of a huge war against angels that never happened.

if you've seen the trailer don't worry about seeing the movie all the best bits are shown in the trailer.

Doesnt matter if a turd is mainstream or not..its still a turd :D-teabag

I'll have to agree with that. Still, it looks a lot better than a few films that are supposed to be a big deal. Take Cap for example. The teaser shows Chris Evans looking like Micheal Jordon ducking on someone in the Indiana Jones alien warehouse and people thought that was come-worthy. Just sayin.

So you're all boycotting Priest because Legion sucked? Fair enough. Paul Bettany couldn't sell weed.

I learned not to trust a trailer too much- For good or bad. I wouldn't be surprised if Priest was shit on a tricycle, but the trailer does it's job in making the promise. I know Cap just has a teaser, but what more could their be to show? Jumping higher, some flips? It actually runs the risk of looking lamer by showing more of the film. But that's just me. And the people who think CONAN is going to be awesome after seeing two pictures and an obnoxious flash poster that looks like prince of persia: skull walkway. By that type of "logic", priest should be the most awaited film of all times. Jus sayin.

You shoulda searched longer for a better gif to fit the depth comment. Doesn't really match up. And i've seen some great ones from you.

Teabag@ Priest pet. I was always jealous of kids like you. At least you were romanced.

@NeoBaggins Dont judge this movie by the poster. Judge it by Paul Bettany's desperation for acting work.

I hate to be the odd man out, but I think PRIEST looks nothing like Legion (which I didn't like at all) and I'm actually looking forward to seeing it.

yeah there was some fun creature stuff in Legion and that was about it for me. I was more amazed that Dennis Quade got outa bed for that one. It was about as good as Devil to me. that elevator movie.

Sharktocupas is cool. how bout Shocktopus.

Paul Bettany wasnt what was wrong with Legion. It was the supporting cast and shitty story/plot. Honestly this movie has promise and I think it will be pretty good.

Damn BETTANY would have made an amazing PROF X in a real First Class, [frick] u FOX lol.

Legion was an abomination, so glad I didn't spend money on a movie for that. I get good vibes from the trailor I just pray that it's not another legion

BUT I'm willing to give paul bettany one more chance...one more...

Apparently, falling ash is all the rage now in the movie poster business. Something else will be in next season. Hopefully falling knickers.
