warded manPaul W.S. Anderson became interested in debut fantasy novel written by Peter V. Brett «The Warded Man»: he won’t only produce the picture with his long-time business partner Jeremy Bolt, but also will take directing chair. «We believe, that the film – has the potential of large-scale Epic, in the spirit of «Lord of the Rings », – said Anderson. That’s it – no more, no less.

The place of the picture will be in the future, which, alas, not a light for people. Mankind attacked with nightly terrible demons, and in a situation of constant struggle for survival, rolled in an era of feudalism. However, there are three young heroes, who have power to change the situation for the better. One of them – the title character, the body of which is tattooed with spells.

Brett’s book is the first part of the trilogy under the title «The Demon Cycle», so, that in terms of Anderson is an entire franchise. If, of course, the first film does not fail.
