Terminator 3 star Kristanna Loken signs on as lead in film adaptation of BloodRayne Video Game

Boll KG and Brightlight Pictures to begin shooting in August 2004

(Vancouver, BC) – Kristanna Loken, best known for her role opposite Arnold Schwarzenegger in T3: Rise of the Machines, has signed on as the title character in the film adaptation of the popular Majesco action-horror video game BloodRayne.

Loken will begin work on BloodRayne in August 2004 shooting in locations throughout Romania. As the film's lead, Loken will play the title character who is half human and half vampire, driven by vengeance to overthrow her father, Kagan, king of all vampires.

A former model, Kristanna Loken first caught worldwide attention with her role as the villainous T-X in the highly anticipated T3 sequel. Loken has also appeared in the feature films Academy Boyz (2001) and Panic (2001) and just completed Uli Edel's feature film Kingdom in Twilight.

Of Loken's casting, Producer Shawn Williamson said, "I loved Kristanna in T3 and am excited to see how she brings the character of Rayne to life."

BloodRayne marks the sixth collaboration between Shawn Williamson, principal and producer of Vancouver-based film production company Brightlight Pictures and German Director/Producer Uwe Boll. Boll directs the picture that is written by Guinevere Turner (American Psycho).

BloodRayne Director, Uwe Boll, said, "Kristanna Loken is perfect for BloodRayne. She is strong, tall, athletic, sexy – everything that BloodRayne is."

Loken is represented by Eddy Yablans at International Creative Management and managed by Miles Levy.

Too bad no one's picked her to play Samus.  I think she'd probably fit that role better.

Will she sport huge BloodRayne BAZONGAS?

[Shift Key]

I'd almost bet the house on it, considering her assets in T3

I still reckon that Jennifer Garner could be Samus - but that's another topic  

[Shift Key]

Nah, Samus is a blonde, and I can't see Jennifer Garner as a blonde EVAR!

BAN'D FOR OFFTOPIC OH WA

I'm kind of upset that anyone would actually care enough about Bloodrayne to make a movie about it.  I mean, the title character is a sub-machine gun-toting, karate-wielding supermodel vampiress that kills Nazis.  They should just drop the other shoe and make her a cyborg elf ninja that works for the mafia, too.

Well they did make a House of the Dead movie....

Though Ms.Loken will have to dye her hair red, she still has that sultry,femme fatale look. Blood Rayne, IMHO, was a decent game despite screaming unoriginality and questionable production valuesd('Cube version at least); the core gameplay was still good. Shame the sequel won't make it to the 'Cube though...
