According to Variety, one of my favorite action actresses (next to Milla Jovovich), Maggie Q is set to join Paul Bettany and Cam Gigandet in Priest, the horror Western that Scott Stewart is directing for Screen Gems.
Adapted by Cory Goodman from a TokyoPop comic, the film is set in a world ravaged by war between man and vampires and follows a warrior priest (Bettany) who teams with a sheriff (Gigandet) to track down a murderous band of vampires who have kidnapped his niece. Q will play a priestess -- a vampire hunter as tough as the priests -- who also joins Bettany.
Great cast so far. I'm really hoping her action parts will be much bigger than the small parts she had in both Live Free or Die Hard and Mission Impossible 3 (a film in my opinion she was completely wasted in). Not only is she an amazing actress (dramatically and physically), but she's much gorgeous in person. Met her and Bruce willis at the Live Free or Die Hard premiere at Radio City along with director Len Wiseman, his wife Kate Beckinsale, and Justin Long. If you are looking for a great action film filled with hot babes kicking ass, check out an earlier film Maggie did called Naked Weapon.
