Principal photography is underway on Warner Bros. Pictures' and Legendary Pictures' fantasy action adventure Seventh Son. Shooting began on March 19, under the direction of award-winning filmmaker Sergey Bodrov, director of the Oscar nominated foreign language films Mongol and Nomad: The Warrior.

Seventh Son stars Academy Award winner Jeff Bridges, Oscar nominee Julianne Moore, and Ben Barnes.

In a time long past, an evil is about to be unleashed that will reignite the war between the forces of the supernatural and humankind once more. Master Gregory (Jeff Bridges) is a knight who had imprisoned the malevolently powerful witch, Mother Malkin (Julianne Moore), centuries ago. But now she has escaped and is seeking vengeance. Summoning her followers of every incarnation, Mother Malkin is preparing to unleash her terrible wrath on an unsuspecting world. Only one thing stands in her way: Master Gregory.

In a deadly reunion, Gregory comes face to face with the evil he always feared would someday return. Now he has only until the next full moon to do what usually takes years: train his new apprentice, Tom Ward (Ben Barnes) to fight a dark magic unlike any other. Man's only hope lies in the seventh son of a seventh son.

The film's international cast also includes Alicia Vikander, Antje Traue, Olivia Williams and Kit Harington.

Sergey Bodrov is directing the film from a screenplay by Matt Greenberg, Charles Leavitt and Steven Knight, based on the book The Spook's Apprentice by Joseph Delaney.

Seventh Son is being produced by Basil Iwanyk, Thomas Tull and Lionel Wigram. The executive producers are Jon Jashni, Brent O'Connor and Alysia Cotter, with Jillian Zaks and Erica Lee serving as co-producers.

Seventh Son will be filmed entirely on location in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

A presentation of Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures, Seventh Son will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.
