Wesley Snipes has taken the lead role in Andrew Goth's "Gallowwalker" reports Production Weekly.

Snipes will play mysterious gunman Kaos, the son of a nun who breaks her covenant with God to ensure his survival. This act brings a curse upon Kaos - all those that die by his gun will return.

Hunted by a gang of his undead former victims, led by the vicious Kansa, Kaos enlists Fabulos, a new young warrior to fight by his side.

Written by Joanne Reay, filming is scheduled to begin in Namibia, South Africa next month.
