After the break, a maybe-report on the actor’s possible involvement with Timur Bekmambetov’s new film.

And then there’s Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Now that Timur Bekmambetov is set to direct the adaptation of Seth Grahame-Smith’s revisionist genre novel, it’s time to cast the picture. We’ve heard little in the way of hard and fast info about actors for the project, but now The Wrap reports that Eric Bana is ‘circling’ the lead role of Abraham Lincoln. Or something like that. Further in the article, The Wrap makes this sound pretty tentative, saying, “[Bana is] scheduled to meet with director Timur Bekmambetov soon, and is certainly in contention for the part.”
