Magdalena (Hot Territory)
Hey,
Comic Book Fans. Anyone know who Magdalena is?

A little info on Magdalena:
Quote:
he Magdalena is an American comic book heroine created by Top Cow Productions. She does not have her own on-going series but has had two limited series and has been featured in comics with The Darkness, the Witchblade, Tomb Raider, The Angelus and Vampirella. She first appeared in The Darkness #15 (June 1998).

WHO SHE IS:
Quote:
After the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ, Mary Magdalene, reputed to be his wife, gave birth to a daughter, Sarah. From this child is descended the holy lineage of the Magdalena, a royal bloodline that passes great power and great honor from mother to daughter. The Magdelena serves as the warrior and protector of the Catholic Church.
The Magdalena has the ability to see into the human heart, to show people the error of their ways and give them the choice to redeem their sins. There is only one in a generation, and she alone stands and takes arms against the evils of the world. Apart from the powers she is born with, the Magdalena wields the Spear of Destiny, the spear that pierced the side of Christ, as a holy and formidable weapon against the twisted and the evil.

FROM THE SOURCE ABOUT THE MOVIE:
Quote:
It looks like Top Cow’s “Magdalena” is really moving along at a brisk pace, with its two leads already cast (Jenna Dewan and Luke Goss) and a director in Japanese wunderkind Ryuhei Kitamura onboard. So what’s next? Um, the script, for one. That’s the job of screenwriter Holly Brix, who recently talked to MTV about what she has plans for the movie, script-wise.

Quote:
Says Brix:
It’s definitely a supernatural action movie, so I think ‘DaVinci Code’ is a good reference as far as all the Catholicism in it. But in addition to that story, it’s also a really straightforward action movie.
There’s not a lot of secret codes to unlock and that sort of thing.

Quote:
She adds that while Dewan, who will play Patience in the movie, is the female lead, Goss’ Kristof, Patience’s trainer and mentor, will also have a big part, though apparently there won’t be any romantic entanglements between the two. The film, as expected, will be an Origins Story for Patience as she learns about her Godly heritage and trains to become the latest in a long line of Magdalena warriors, which according to the comic books, is clothing-averse.
MTV also has interviews with Dewan talking about the upcoming movie. What’s better than a hot girl talking about a comic book movie like she knows what she’s talking about? Good God, this is hot.

Reminds me somewhat of Assassins Creed (similarities except this is hot territory)
There is also a video interview if you are interested.
ENJOY.
