On the red carpet of the 2008 Scream Awards that took place Saturday night, The Dark Knight producer Charles Roven revealed to us that Ron Perlman will co-star in the supernatural thriller Season of the Witch.

The "Hellboy" franchise star joins the Columbia Pictures project, which marks the reteaming of director Dominic Sena and his Gone in 60 Seconds actor Nicolas Cage.
The film tells the story of 14th-century knights transporting a girl suspected of being the witch who has spread the Black Plague.

Perlman will play the role of "Felson." Additional casting for the film includes Stephen Campbell Moore (The Bank Job) as "Debelzaq," Claire Foy (the BBC's "Little Dorrit") as "The Girl," and Robbie Sheehan (Independent Television's "Rock Rivals") as "Kaylan."

Written by Bragi Schut Jr., Season of the Witch is scheduled to start production in early November 2008 in Austria and Hungary.

Claire is the best part of this movie. The movie it's self is decent enough. But Claire is great. She plays the girl in the cage part well. I would have fallen for her gaze if I was in their position that's for damn sure.

Indeed she was so beautiful in this! I too would have succumbed to her charms for sure.

Easily the best part of that movie. Even from behind a cage, she exuded quiet menace and mystery. Though sometimes she appeared innocent, and was convincing as such, there was always something going on underneath that you could tell was just waiting to be unleashed. It's not very often a character behind bars can make one feel uneasy (as the fact they're behind bars at least gives some sense of safety), but she managed to be very unnerving and quite chilling. I made a point of checking this movie out solely for her. Shame she was replaced at the end by a CGI creature. I think she could've done the job if she'd played the part (just with prosthetics added on and maybe a little CGI enhancement).
