Daniel Benmayor‘s first feature was titled Paintball. In the action/horror a group of people were dropped into a forest for a paintball match, only to find out someone was using real ammo. After being attached to a sequel to Hitman, the Spanish director has his second feature hitting theaters at the end of the year. It is a Spanish war epic titled Bruc, that somewhat reminds of Nicolas Winding Refn‘s Valhalla Rising. The film stars Juan José Ballesta, Vincent Perez, and Astrid Berges-Frisbey (who can been seen in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides this summer). Check out the trailer below via Buzzes Cafe.
Here is also a neat teaser trailer from over a year and half ago:
Synopsis: A Catalan drummer boy retreats to the high sierra to escape Napoleon’s army, but then manages to almost singlehandedly defeat them, bringing hope to the rest of Europe.
Bruc hits theaters December 22nd, 2010 in Spain and I hope it secures US distribution.
What do you think of the trailer? Does this give you hope for Hitman 2?
