Vin Diesel in Talks to Star in THE LAST WITCH HUNTER

According to Bloody-Disgusting Vin Diesel has entered into talks to star in Summit Entertainment's The Last Witch Hunter. Breck Eisner (The Crazies) is attached to direct the film being produced by Timur Bekmambetov. 

If a deal is made Diesel will play one of the last remaining witch hunters. A breed that keeps the population of witches and warlocks in check. They are about to repopulate in a major way unless he can stop them. I guess I can see Diesel as an ass-kicking witch hunter, can you?

Here's a description the film that was previously released:

This all started long before our times, but for now we are starting in Manhattan, on a bus. An old woman wearing tattered clothing enters a bus and steals one strand of hair from the bus driver which she knots. The rest of the passengers can't take their eyes off her. Suddenly the driver grabs at his chest before falling forward. The bus veers into traffic on the opposite side of the street and explodes into a ball of fire. The only survivor the mysterious woman, now with eyes of black.

They have been walking among us since the beginning. They call themselves Haxen and are not the biggest fans of daylight. The witches abilities have brought a fear into the hearts of many Examples of this fear of witches can be found in historical events such as The Crusades and The Salem Witch Trials. This is why the Haxen have hid for many centuries and have broken up into what we know as covens. Each nationality has their own coven of witches, Hispanic "brujas" in the Bronx, and witches of African heritage in Harlem. The only one who has the ability to stop them is the immortal Nightshade.
