Arnold Schwarzenegger playing an angel in a new film? Talk about a stretch.
All joking aside, TheArnoldFans recently spoke to the actor, who revealed that he is “a kind of angel” in his new film, the newly titled Black Sunday. The film, originally described as something between Man On Fire and High Plains Drifter, is drawing comparisons to movies like Commando and Constantine now, making this even more ridiculous.
Personally, as someone who is far from a fan of Schwarzenegger as an actor, or a person for that matter, this project is absolutely off my radar. It sounds completely and utterly silly, on almost every level, and only grows more cartoonish the more we hear about it. Overall, something like The Last Stand starring the hulking icon is far more interesting.
What do you think?

Link to a trailer? Or did I miss it?

Can’t find any references to the original description but the sourced article is really kind of short on details too, only describing the movie as an Action/Sci-fi/Fantasy flick before quoting Arnold as saying “I’m a kind of angel” and “I can not currently say more about this film.” It also seems that the name was mangled by Google Translate or something and has been corrected from “Black Sunday” to “Black Sands.”
