Has been a decent-sized chunk of time since we last jumped you with some LAST BLOOD news; July of last year was the last time, in fact. The film, which is quite literally about zombies fighting vampires, has had MUTANT CHRONICLES director Simon Hunter on board for some time, but obviously other pieces needed to be put in place before they could start shooting.
Red Giant Entertainment Inc. announced today they have financing in place and have begun principal casting for LAST BLOOD. The film is a live action adaptation of a Red Giant Entertainment property that takes place after a zombie apocalypse, when vampires must battle to protect the last surviving humans to keep alive the necessary blood supply.
LAST BLOOD will be produced by Red Giant Entertainment’s Aimee Schoof, Isen Robbins and Benny R. Powell, as well as exec producer Christian Arnold-Beutel and Keenspot’s Chris and Bobby Crosby. The Crosby siblings created the graphic novel with illustrator Owen Gieni, and Bobby Crosby wrote the screenplay with Nick V. Sterling. LAST BLOOD was published as an online graphic novel in 2006, drawing almost 20 million readers around the world.
We’ll let you know when the cast begins to take shape. In the meantime, you can read the first issue of LAST BLOOD right HERE.
