Plot: Seminary student contacted by the New York Arch Diocese upon graduation. Meets with Cardinal who tasks him with discovering the false members of the church. The young priest soon discovers the church has been infiltrated by Satanist who are attempting to bring about end times.
1st Season he is paired with a New York Cop investigating a series of murders with satanic ritualism. Cardinal tasks the young priest with learning more about the Satanist while assisting the police with their hunt for the killer.
Characters:
Lead 1: Gordon Sims newly graduated priest
Support 1: David Samson New York Homicide Detective.
Support 2: Cardinal, He is Gordon’s mentor and benefactor.
Season 1: Antagonist: Satanic High Priest. I think for a show like this to be successful there has to be an early introduction of an arch nemesis. I don’t see him as being the serial killer that is caught at the end of Season 1. It would be suggested to the viewer that this high priest was behind the murders though and enabled the killer as part of a larger plan.
Over the next few days I’ll look for who you would cast in such a series and make some suggestions.
If it's a movie:
ReplyDeleteLead 1: Toby Maguire (hasn't he played a priest before?)
Support 1: Mark Wahlberg
Support 2: Ian McKellen
If it's a television series:
Lead 1: Jon Hamm
Support 1: Dominic West makes a triumphant return as a television cop!
Support 2: Giancarlo Esposito
Great Suggestions!
