Genre vet Tony Todd is set to take on anew vampire film called Thirst:The Last Sin, we learned this morning. The film is set hundreds of years in the future where only Vampires roam the earth. They built an empire, and squandered their only resource; man. Now, most of these immortal beings live out eternity in an abject state of unquenchable thirst, while a few cling to some pathetic remains. This is the allegorical story of the rise and fall of an empire, and lessons not learned. Todd's character will reportedly span the ages, and bring a large presence to the movie overall. Producer Bob Myers says of Tony's role..."This isn't your typical 'Big Guy' role. We're going to have to see Tony's full range for this part, and I'm sure he will deliver." Shooting on "Thirst" will begin in the UK this fall with a budget of $7.5 million. By the way, this isn't Tony's first vampire movie in general, nor is it his first vampire movie with "Thirst" in the title. He did a film back in 2008 called "The Thirst:Blood War". |
