We have word today that Nick Cage is set to star in Season Of The Witch. This news was first discovered near the ley line cave of Yahoo:
Nicolas Cage will reteam with “Gone in Sixty Seconds” director Dominic Sena for the supernatural thriller “Season of the Witch.”
Cage will play a 14th century knight transporting a girl suspected of being the witch behind the Black Plague. His compatriots help him bring the girl to an abbey of monks trained in exorcising demons.
The cage suits up in armor! This sounds like a road movie with knights on horses and a witch thrown into the mix. I hope she’s able to flee from the knights using black magic. Along the way she could collect different herbs and roots, slowly gathering spell/potion components, methodically building a weapon right under the noses of her captors.
No word yet on when this witch’s tale will be out in theaters, but we will be sure to keep you posted. I also look forward to hearing who will be playing the witch.
