“True Blood” actor Stephen Moyer has signed up for Priest, according to Variety. However the actor will not be donning prosthetic fangs for one - as he has been cast as leading man Paul Bettany’s on screen brother. The film also stars Cam Gigandet, Karl Urban and Maggie Q.

Priest is based on a TokyoPop comic book is set in a world ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampires and follows a warrior priest (Bettany) who turns against the church to track down a murderous band of vampires who have kidnapped his niece.

Also joining the supernatural ranks is “90210″ actress Lily Collins as the niece who’s the cause of all these shenanigans. Priest is written by Cory Goodman and directed by Scott Stewart. Michael De Luca, Josh Donen and Mitchell Peck are producing the picture, which began principal photography yesterday!
