The official website for Sony’s Screen Gems film adaptation of Priest has launched, and with it we get our first look at Paul Bettany as the main character in the story.

The adaptation of the TokyoPop comic book is being directed by Scott Stewart, who also directed the film Legion recently. The film is being prepped for release on August 13, 2010.

The story is set in a world ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampire and follows a warrior priest (Bettany) who turns against the church to track down a murderous band of vampires who have kidnapped his niece. Cam Gigandet co-stars.

Bettany looks good in the role, what do you think?
