Trent Reznor to Score and Star in Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

Trent Reznor just won an Oscar. Now, alongside his fellow Oscar-winning partner Atticus Ross, he is set to score Director David Fincher’s next film, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. So what does he plan to do next? Score and act in Abraham Linclon: Vampire Hunter, of course.

According to Badass Digest, Reznor is set to score the movie adaptation of the “quirk classic.” The movie, which stars Benjamin Walker as an axe-toting, vampire-slaying, honest Abe, is being directed by Timur Bekmambetov, with Tim Burton attached to produce. In addition, Reznor will appear in the film as the vampire who kills Lincoln’s mother, the catalyst event for the entire movie.
