Jul 27 2009'Solomon Kane' Poster: Despite Appearances, Not Van Helsing

Continuing the recent trend of every action hero looking like Tom Petty/WWE's The Undertaker, here's the new poster for Solomon Kane.

It was probably a good idea hiding James Purefoy's face: I now so strongly regard him as "guy in that really obnoxious ad campaign for The Philanthropist" that I don't know how I'll ever buy him in the role of a brooding Puritan. (He's a brooding Puritan, right? I'm just assuming.)

1st again

he needs Paul Bearer next to him, and maybe Kane.

sooo hot! Hot in Rome too!

Was this produced by WWE films?

How dare you? Purefoy is Marc Anthony.

Solomon Kane is the most badass of any action hero. He's a puritan that wanders around smiting evil like ffing NATURAL 20'S PALDAINS.

Flintlock pistol + saber = will travel. Can't wait for this and Red Sonja.

Can't wait for this film! Solomon Kane is one of Howard's greatest creations. Ass kicking puritan with sword, flint-lock pistol and vampire killing staff!!! I hope they do it right...

Actually they based that Van Helsing character's look on this comic character...

If anything, the Undertaker stole his look from Solomon Kane.

They didn't base the Van Helsing character on Solomon Kane, They straight up stole it! I think if Robert E. Howard saw that film, he would probably kill himself all over again.
