New images from Vin Diesel’s The Last Witch Hunter

It’s good thing Vin Diesel knows how to use a Facebook page, otherwise we’d still be in the dark on his upcoming thriller THE LAST WITCH HUNTER. Directed by Breck Eisner, Diesel leads the fantasy actioner as an immortal witch hunter who teams with his natural enemy, a witch, to stop the covens of New York City from unleashing a plague on humanity. We have some new images from the flick below, featuring a couple of gnarly beards. Dig it!

Rose Leslie, Elijah Wood and Michael Caine all star in THE LAST WITCH HUNTER. Here's a new synopsis:

Five hundred years ago, war raged between humankind and witches, vicious supernatural creatures intent on unleashing the Black Death upon the world. Armies of witch hunters battled the unnatural enemy across the globe, including KAULDER (Vin Diesel), a valiant warrior who managed to slay an all-powerful QUEEN WITCH, decimating her followers in the process. In the moments before her death, the Queen exacted her revenge by cursing Kaulder with immortality, forever separating him from his beloved wife and daughter in the afterlife. Kaulder has spent centuries hunting down rogue witches, all the while yearning for his long-lost loved ones.

Today, he is the only one of his kind–the last witch hunter. With the help of FATHER DOLAN, a Catholic priest, and a mystical arsenal hidden beneath New York’s St. Patrick’s Cathedral, he continues to pursue the renegades and outlaws who endanger humanity. Chief among their adversaries is BELIAL, a powerful rebel witch who Kaulder believes has found a way to restore the Queen Witch to power and reignite her campaign to destroy the human world.

With the help of CHLOE, a goodhearted young witch, Kaulder sets out to stop Belial before he can set his plan in motion, but allies in unexpected places keep the evil witch one step ahead in a cunning cat-and-mouse pursuit that will determine the survival of the human race.

Mark Canton, Bernie Goldmann and Diesel are producing the movie, while Diesel's One Race partner Samantha Vincent will executive produce with Adam Goldworm.
