Not a great deal of information on this yet but the word is
that Heath Ledger is on board this project in the lead role.
He will join his Knights Tale director Brian Helgehand.
The film has been compared to The Exorcist and The Omen and
The
Stax Report reviewed a very early of the script dated
August 1997.
"Obviously, the draft I read is quite old now and
there will have been changes made to it by the time filming
begins. Please bear that in mind while reading this report.
The Sin Eater is a supernatural thriller that follows disillusioned
Roman Catholic priest and academic Fr. Alex Bernier (Ledger)
as he investigates the strange death of the French ambassador
in New York. Was his death a murder or a suicide? Odd marks
on the decedent's body hint at a possible connection to the
occult so Detective Lucy Sinclair of the NYPD brings in her
estranged friend Alex for help. There is a suggestion of a
past romance (or at least a yearning for one) between them
but that's all I'll say about that. Alex and Lucy end up conducting
parallel investigations that take them to Rome and Paris".
"Alex
rightly suspects that the ambassador's death is the work of
the fabled "Sin Eater," an excommunicated priest
named William Eden who works outside of the Church in order
to take away the sins of those who want to die. Think of Eden
as a cross between Dr. Kevorkian and Father Merrin from The
Exorcist (but saddled with the world's most bizarre eating
disorder). The following bit can be considered a fairly big
spoiler, so [vist FilmForce]
to read it".
The
film was originally intended to be a vehicle for Antonio Banderas,
but he jumped ship back in 1999. Now that the film is under
Helgehand's control, not only is Heath Ledger in that role,
but the director wants to bring in his fellow Knight's Tale
star Paul Bettany too.
Word is that The Sin Eater will shoot in Prague which will
double up for Rome. It's rumoured to begin shooting in the
Spring of this year for a 2003 release.
