Viggo Mortensen Offered Lead In ‘The Last Voyage Of The Demeter’

‘The Last Voyage Of The Dementer’ has been in production for quite some time now. The film about the ship that carried Dracula’s coffin from Transylvania to England has had director Neil Marshall (‘Doomsday’, ‘The Descent’) attached for quite some time now and rumors of Ben Kingsley (‘Iron Man 3’, ‘Shutter Island’) to play the ships captain and Noomi Rapace (‘Prometheus’) to possibly star as Anna Billington.

We haven’t heard any news on this project until now. Bloody Disgusting has reported that the lead role of Henry Clemens has been offered to Viggo Mortensen (‘Lord Of The Rings’, ‘A History Of Violence’)

The most recent draft of the film has been written by Lowell Cauffiel and is said to be “a tale that is reminiscent of the first movie in the Alien franchise, in which a crew is slaughtered one-by-one by a mysterious passenger.”
