Karl Urban to Star in the Movie Priest Do we really need another Vampire money. Looks like Hollywood thinks so. Let's see how this one turns out. Karl Urban has signed on to play the villain in "Priest," Screen Gems' post-apocalyptic horror thriller directed by Scott Stewart.

"She thinks so much and so highly of us. We had about a 15- [to] 30-minute discussion with the whole gang and went our separate ways. We're still in the re-reading and taking-it-all-in phase before we actually sit down and start designing it." Developing a worthy sequel to this year's generally acclaimed and certainly lucrative Trek reboot will take much more time, Kurtzman said. They have to exhaust every possible idea t
