Kevin Zegers: My Movie ‘Vampire’ Isn’t About Vampires At All

Vampires. They are all the rage. But, “Bonnie and Clyde” star Kevin Zegers is not jumping on the bandwagon, despite the fact that his new flick, which he just wrapped, is tentatively called “Vampire.” And, he told MTV News that given the fact that he doesn’t actually play a vampire in the uber-dark flick, there may have to be some title changes.

“I just finished shooting that [last week] in Vancouver with Keisha Castle-Hughes and Rachael Leigh Cook. It was great,” he said. “It’s sort of like ‘American Psycho.’ It’s actually not like a vampire movie, which I think they’re actually going to change the title.”

Well, it may not be about a cold one, per se, but we do have to say that Kevin’s character sounds vaguely vampire-like, even if the name of the flick ends up getting altered. “It’s about a school teacher who sort of seduces young women on the internet and helps them commit suicide,” he explained, leaving us creeped out. He added, “[He] sort of takes all of the blood out of them and drinks it. I am that teacher.”

The actor said that it’s pretty normal for him to be cast him in really dark movies. “That tends to be the things people like me to do,” he explained. “I end up in the strange movies, which by the way is kind of great.”

Rachael Signs on to “Vampire”

A hot cast of young Western stars has joined Vampire, the English-language debut of Japanese director Iwai Shunji, including Keisha Castle-Hughes and Rachael Leigh Cook.

Also on board the film, which started shooting in Vancouver last week, are Kristin Kreuk (Smallville), Adelaide Clemens (X-Men: Origins) and Trevor Morgan (Mean Creek). Previously announced cast includes Kevin Zegers, Amanda Plummer and Japanese star Yu Aoi.

Produced by Rockwell Eyes in conjunction with Convergence Entertainment, Vampire was pre-sold as part of the producer’s financing arrangements to the Middle East, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Korea and Japan. Fortissimo Films is handling sales for the rest of the world and co-repping North American rights with Rockwell Eyes.

Zegers plays a schoolteacher with a taste for human blood, who searches for suicidal young women as his victims; all of whom he falls in love with before their deaths.

Iwai’s credits include festival favourites such as Love Letter and All About Lily Chou Chou, and he recently directed a segment of portmanteau, New York, I Love You, starring Orlando Bloom and Christina Ricci. Iwai is also producing Vampire alongside Convergence’s Tim Kwok.
