According to the good folks over at Cinescape, Josh Hartnett has just singed up to star in the upcoming horror project “30 Days Of Night“.
Before Lucky Number Slevin, I had all but lost hope in Josh Hertnett… but he showed us something in Slevin that gives me a glimmer of hope for the boy. But my interest in 30 Days Of Night isn’t due to Hartnett… it’s due to this synopsis:
The script, written by Stuart Beattie and Brian Nelson, follows a local sheriff (Hartnett) and his wife who is also a sheriff. It is set in Barrow, Alaska, the northernmost town in the U.S. where the sun does not appear for more than 30 days during the dead of winter. An evil force emerges from the darkness, striking terror into the town. The husband and wife sheriffs are forced to choose between saving themselves and helping the town survive until daylight returns.
The script is actually based on a comic book that you can learn about here. I think this thing has a TON of potential. Sign me up and called me excited!
Now, I haven’t ever read this comic… have any of you guys seen it before?
