The actor has been cast as Abraham Lincoln in director Timur Bekmambetov&#8217;s upcoming movie &#8216;Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter,&#8217; Slashfilm.com is reporting. Walker was chosen to play the fictionalized version of the sixteenth president after Adrien Brody, Josh Lucas, Oliver Jackson-Cohen and James D&#8217;Arcy all screen-tested for the role, but were past on.<\/p>\n<p>The film, which is based on last year&#8217;s novel of the same name by best-selling author Seth Grahame-Smith, will portray Lincoln as a vampire killer. The script was written by Grahame-Smith, and like the novel, the movie will follow Lincoln learning at a young age that his mother was killed by a vampire. As a result, Lincoln develops a vendetta against all vampires and their slave owners.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter&#8217; is set to be released in 3D either in March or June 2012. After Bekmambetov finishes the film, he&#8217;s set to adapt another novel by Grahame-Smith, &#8220;Pride and Prejudice and Zombies&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Written by: Karen Benardello<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_40825\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40825\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/abraham_lincoln_vampire_hunter_still.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/abraham_lincoln_vampire_hunter_still.jpg\" alt=\"Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter\" title=\"Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter\" width=\"500\" height=\"280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-40825\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/abraham_lincoln_vampire_hunter_still.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/abraham_lincoln_vampire_hunter_still-300x168.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-40825\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Benjamin Walker, who is most remembered for portraying the title character in the on- and off-Broadway productions of &#8216;Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson,&#8217; will be playing another president, this time on screen.
