Always Bet On Black

gallowwalkerComing Soon.net is reporting that Wesley Snipes is heading back to Horror with the film Gallowwalker.

Snipes will play mysterious gunman Kaos, the son of a nun who breaks her covenant with God to ensure his survival. This act brings a curse upon Kaos - all those that die by his gun will return. Hunted by a gang of his undead former victims, led by the vicious Kansa, Kaos enlists Fabulos, a new young warrior to fight by his side.

I can see how everyone is going to assume this is nothing more than Blade 4, and for all we know that’s how it could end up. Still, in theory it seems likely that Snipes’ new character is going to be slightly more ruthless and amoral than Blade. This time he isn’t necessarily fighting selflessly to protect us, but to clean up a mess brought on by his own evil ways. Add to that a locale outside of the standard North American and Asian settings and maybe Snipes can shake off some of the supernatural hero typecasting that would come from this role.
