Trent Reznor could be avampire

Mon 7th Mar, 2011 in International News

We’ve seen Alice Cooper, Iggy Pop, Henry Rollins and Moby as vampires, now it seems that Trent Reznor has been bitten by the acting bug.

According to Entertainment Weekly, the recent Academy Award winner is in talks to score and appear in a film version of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, which recasts the former US President and face of the $5 bill as a vampire slayer.

Russian director Timur Bekmambetov, who helmed the popular Night Watch and its sequel Day Watch, will direct the film with Benjamin Walker as Lincon and Mary Elizabeth Winstead as his wife.

Apparently Reznor will be playing the character Jack Barts, a vampire who kills Lincoln’s mother and inspires the president’s vow of vampire vengeance.
