Solomon Kane film is nearly finished

Solomon Kane is another one of Robert E. Howards more famous characters he created in his short stories and poems. Just as Conan he is kind of a bad-ass and the stories itself are just as action packed and well written, so i thought i give you an update on the status of this REH movie.

As the director of the new upcoming Solomon Kane film wrote on his private blog, the new Solomon Kane film has reached the last stage of active, creative work: the sound mixing. He is spending some time personally in the sound studio  in London to supervise the mixing of the several hundreds of sound layers per scene. In the last weeks and months he has continuously posted little articles talking about the movie on his blog, including some set shots that give a little hint on the quality of the set design and it looks amazing.

Lets hope once Conan has a director he will be just as passionate and into the whole production as Bassett is on Solomon Kane and maybe gives us small insights on the production via a blog too, since those views through the keyhole are really what make a “production” more personal and interesting to follow than just official news and trailers.

    Thanks for the info, sounds very interesting. I never heard of Solomon Kane, but I will follow this for sure.

    Yep, Bassett’s Kane looks great so far. James Purefoy was a piece of inspired casting for the lead role, and Michael J Bassett has consistently shown genuine passion for the subject. My only gripe is that the movie’s not based on one of Howard’s short stories…we won’t see those unless this one’s successful. Seeing the incredible amount of love that went into the project, I’m fairly certain we’ll be seeing more Kane.

    Bassett also mentioned working on a Bran Mak Morn script in his blog. Yet another great idea. Let’s hope it happens.
