Kevin Zegers is tackling a role of a bloodsucking school teacher in horror movie "Vampire" and the first picture of him in the film has been obtained by Twitch. In the photo, the 25-year-old star is seen as normal as a person can be without any sign that he is a serial killer.
Wearing a jacket and glasses, he is pictured standing on what looks like a bridge. Beside the still which features Zegers, there is another image from "Vampire" that gives a look at Amanda Plummer as Helga. The actress is seen sitting behind a piano with some strings hanging.
"Vampire" will be the first English-language film of Japanese director Iwai Shunji. In the film, Zegers' character Simon is described as a man with a predilection for the taste of blood, and the resourcefulness to find willing victims on a website for the suicidal.
Also among the cast are Rachael Leigh Cook, Kristin Kreuk, Keisha Castle-Hughes, Adelaide Clemens, Trevor Morgan as well as Yu Aoi. This drama thriller is set to come out in 2011, but has not had an exact release date.
