Casting and Distribution Update on Tales of an Ancient Empire

Things have been quiet for the last couple of months regarding Tales of an Ancient Empire, but this weekend we got word from director Albert Pyun that not only is his cast expanding, but he's also close to sealing a deal on the film's North American distribution.

A demon sorceress and her vampires ... heroes ... villains. Plus gore, blood, and naked damsels. A typical weekend in DC's offices? Maybe, but it's also what we were promised by Albert Pyun as filming of his Sword and the Sorcerer follow-up, Tales of an Ancient Empire, progressed. Last we heard of the production, they were "almost at the stretch run" and awaiting Christopher Lambert's arrival to shoot the finishing shots.

More Stills & Teasers for Tales of an Ancient Empire

A few days ago we got our first look at Tales of an Ancient Empire, and now we have not only a slew of new stills from the first couple of days of shooting, but also a peek at not just one or two, but three teaser posters for the film.

It's gone through a couple of cast modifications and a change in filming locations since we first heard about it back in April '08, but Tales of an Ancient Empire, Albert Pyun's follow-up to The Sword and the Sorcerer, is finally under way.

One new project that we've been keeping close tabs on is Albert Pyun's Road to Hell, an "unofficial" sequel to the 1984 Walter Hill classic Streets of Fire.

Ever since I was lucky enough to watch Albert Pyun's fabulous horror/sci-fi hybrid Invasion (review), I've kept a keen eye on his subsequent projects.
