It seems like we have been talking about Vin Diesel‘s Babylon A.D. forever. Director Mathieu Kassovitz was attached way back in 2005 and the film is finally going to see the light of day on February 29, 2008. Of course February is usually a time reserved for the movies studios don’t feel will perform so well during higher profile months, but I am always up for a Diesel flick since there is always potential for a little fun.
The story is based on Maurice Dantec’s novel “Babylon Babies,” and is set in the near future and concerns genetic manipulation. In the book, a mercenary charged with delivering a young woman from Russia to Canada learns that she has been manipulated by a synthetic virus and what lies inside her could doom the human race.
