Based on the Seth Grahame-Smith written book--The story sees President Abraham Lincoln reimagined as the ass-kicking nemesis of vampires everywhere, a man who saw his own mother killed by a bloodsucker when just a young boy, and who has vowed vengeance ever since. Yet it also weaves in historical facts about his term in the White House
Benjamin Walker will play Abe, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Anthony Mackie and Dominic Cooper also star
