Alexander Skarsgard has been quite busy lately, with filming Battleship and portraying Vampire Sheriff Eric Northman in season 5 of HBO’s True Blood. He must love his busy life as he has shown no sign of slowing down.
Ed Zwick, who is directing The Great Wall, is in the process of deciding to cast Benjamin Walker (Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter) or Skarsgard. Henry Cavill (Man of Steel) is already set to star in the film.
The adventure film tells the story of the travels of British warriors through 15th Century China. In the process, they stumble upon the construction of a large wall. When night time comes around, the warriors realize that the reasons behind the building of the wall isn’t just to keep out the Mongols, something else, inhuman, and far more dangerous is out there threatening the lives of many.
