Biel vamping in New Line's 3rd 'Blade' run

Jessica Biel, who stars in New Line Cinema's upcoming remake of "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre," has signed to star in another New Line film, "Blade: Trinity." Biel will play Abigail, the daughter of Whistler (Kris Kristofferson) who inherits the vampire-slaying duties that once belonged to Blade (Wesley Snipes). The third installment of the Marvel Comics-based franchise is being written and directed by David Goyer. "I think Jessica will blow people away in 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre,' and we are excited to have her next movie," New Line production president Toby Emmerich said. "Trinity" is being produced by Goyer, Snipes, Lynn Harris and Peter Frankfurt. Emmerich and New Line production exec Cale Boyter are overseeing the project with a September start date planned for the Vancouver shoot. Best known for her role on the WB Network's long-running drama "7th Heaven," Biel's big-screen credits include "The Rules of Attraction," "Ulee's Gold" and "Summer Catch." She is repped by CAA.

Hopefully the movie will be as good as the previous two.

I'm sure it will be, and if it isn't, someones gonna die!

The production team is the same, so it should be good. And since it's the last part of the Trilogy, It should be even better than good.

Tell me about it. I already know they f***ed everything up in that movie.

*Brodie* · 08-27-2003, 05:22 PM

I know, they filled even the trailer with more story than the original movie had all together.

No kidding... I'm still amazed on how this is even a remake? Why not just make your own slasher movie if you're going through all that work?

It pretty much is it's own movie. It might be called TCM, and it might resemble the original a little, but they really f***ed it up big time.

*Dr. Doom* · 08-28-2003, 12:13 AM

Meh......I'm not really excited by any of this.

*Raven* · 08-28-2003, 07:51 AM

this is probably a movie im gonna rent when it comes out on video. but before I see this one, I should probably see the first 2.

Theres only one thing about this that really bothers me, they have to screw up the entire story to introduce her!

Whistler killed his entire famliy when a vampire attqacked them as stated in the first movie. So how is it he still has a dautgher? Is it froma pervious engagment? If so that would somewhat screw up the time line a bit since they basicly say he devotes his entire life to hunting Vamps.

I don't think it's his daughter. I read somewhere that she'll be playing hin niece.

**Karpo_007** · 08-28-2003, 09:44 AM

Hmmm... They don't really tell what happens to his family, Just that the drifter Vampire tried to have whistler choose who he would kill first. t wouldn't really be any worse than bringing whistler back from the dead.

As taken from FilmJerk.com:

Abigail Whistler: A beautiful Caucasian woman in her 20s, Abigail is “cut like an Olympic athlete” and equipped with a walking arsenal of vampire-fighting weapons. Abigail is the daughter of Blade’s old partner Whistler (played by Kristofferson), and, like him, she’s an accomplished, deadly vampire hunter who lives and works with the Nightstalkers. Described in the casting notes as “determined, ruthless and unique (she likes to listen to her own music playlists on an MP3 player as she fights),” Abigail saw her whole family destroyed by vampires and, as she puts it in the film’s script, “Ever since I can remember I’ve had this knife of sadness in my heart. As long as it stays there, I’m untouchable. But the moment I pull it out—I’ll die.”

Wow. Convenient. A little too convenient.

*reconsiders handing over her $7.50 for this flick*

Call me crazy, but doesn't more of a story make for a BETTER movie?

That's what I was thinking but I guess everybody likes the old one because there is no story. It's just senselezz violence and nudity. Nothing wrong with that.

*Dr. Doom* · 08-28-2003, 03:47 PM

Nudity? Where?!

Uh, there is no nudity in TCM, and there is a story. You have obviously never seen it.
