When the Dark Comes Rising...

So Harry over at Aintitcool posted a little teaser article for the upcoming Dark Is Rising adaptation. I just found out about this a few weeks ago and I'm pretty darn excited for it. I loved the Susan Cooper novels way back when and the cast of this has me a little giddy. I always pictured the Merrimen character as a little older and more looking like a Gandalf in the 20th century. But with Ian McShane I just don't care. He's perfect for it. Provided the profanity doesn't start spilling from his mouth. Christopher Eccleston as the Dark Rider? Brilliant. The man freaks the hell out of me and that's exactly what the Rider should do. The stills only add to the happiness:
