A Look Ahead to Solomon Kane?

United Kingdom audiences are already enjoying the film Solomon Kane in theatres and this begs a question. When will North American audiences get to view the film? There is no listed release date for Solomon Kane. Also, the rights for Solomon Kane have not been sold to a North American distributor. A better question might be, will Solomon Kane ever be shown in North America? A North American distributor needs to snap up the rights for this project, so that movie fans get an opportunity to see Michael J. Bassett's film on the big screen. With some of the most powerful film companies dotting the east and west coasts of America, surely there must be a way to show these European made films on North American shores.

To keep the Solomon Kane dream alive there are two behind the scenes clips from the features courtesy of the film's website. The synopsis for Solomon Kane below:

"Solomon Kane is a 16th century anti-hero created by Robert E. Howard (creator of Conan the Barbarian). When Solomon Kane (James Purefoy of Rome) meets the Devil’s Reaper, he postpones his fate by renouncing violence – a vow that is soon tested by the forces of evil. As Kane once again straps on his weapons, he embarks on an epic journey of redemption" (Entertainment).
