Noomi Rapace & Kingsley Join Last Voyage of Demeter

LATimes reports Noomi Rapace has lined up her next big starring role in the horror thriller The Last Voyage of Demeter. Noomi is picking up some impressive projects with Sherlock Holmes 2 and now this one. Rapace is also in talks for roles in the Alien prequels nd Hansel Gretel: Witch Hunters. Ben Kingsley who has been touch and go with his performances is also joining the movie. They are still looking for the film's male lead who I hope can keep up with Noomi. I have to assume Ben would be playing Dracula.

If you didn't see the Dracula films or read the novel by Bram Stoker. The Demeter is the ship that transports the Count's coffin from Transylvania to London. The crew were picked off one by one by the legendary vampire. I doubt that Rapace would choose this and the new Alien films since the premise is very similar just different settings. The film will be directed by Oscar winner Stefan Ruzowitzky who previously made the excellent Counterfeiters.
