I saw a blurb that Karl Urban (Eomer in Lord of the Rings) will be in the Doom movie that's in production. It's due out later next year I believe.

They're making a movie about Doom? Are you pulling my leg, or can you actually confirm this with a link or something?

Hey, The Rock is in it too! I liked Scorpion King. Here's a link about the Doom movie.

That's really neat, I think it will be a great action movie if they ever complete it, as long as they don't change the original Doom story too much. I think they should have a big contest where they have all the biggest Doom fans sign up for a drawing, and pick one of them to get a starring role in the film. I would be one of the first to sign up. mang - Oct 08, 2004 - 11:53 PM Post subject:
(saw this on newdoom.com)
HomeLan Fed has an interview posted with Doom screenwriter Dave Callaham. They spoke with him briefly over the phone and they ask him about the script, characters and production stuffs.

And what about those newly created characters? Callaham said that John, the Space Marine to be played by Karl Urban (best know as Eomer in the Lord of the Rings trilogy), is stationed along with his unit in a research base on an alien planet (the planet is unnamed in the movie unlike the games Doom and Doom 3 which are set on Mars). In the movie he is reunited with his sister, a scientist on the based named Samantha (to be played by Die Another Day villainess Rosamund Pike). They were separated after an accident that killed their parents and Callaham says, “They are a little estranged” However, strange things are afoot on the base as alien monsters begin to appear and both brother and sister have to put aside their differences in order to survive. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson will also appear as Sarge, the head space marine, but Callaham warns, “He is not going to be smiling a whole bunch. You won’t see him raise his left eyebrow.”

Not sure about the Doom movie but I guess we'll have to wait and see. Hope it's not cheesy.
