The Last Witch Hunter will go up against Universal's Jem and the Holograms, Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension and Rock the Kasbah on October 23. The follow-up's development will surely depend on the original's box office performance, and it will face plenty of steep competition. It isn't known yet if these filmmakers will be back for the movie sequel that Lionsgate is already developing, but we'll have to wait and see. The supporting cast includes Rose Leslie, Elijah Wood, Ólafur Darri Ólafsson, Rena Owen, Julie Engelbrecht and Joseph Gilgun.īreck Eisner ( The Crazies) is directing from a screenplay by Cory Goodman ( Apollo 18), Matt Sazama & Burk Sharpless( Dracula Untold). However, unbeknownst to Kaulder, the Queen Witch is resurrected and seeks revenge on her killer causing an epic battle that will determine the survival of the human race. Today Kaulder is the only one of his kind remaining, and has spent centuries hunting down rogue witches, all the while yearning for his long-lost loved ones.
