'Abraham Lincoln' cast sets new precedent by screening film for troops deployed in Middle East
The event also proved to be an eye-opening experience for the movie team.
The screenwriter Seth Grahame-Smith referred to the visit as "life-changing."
"I know that sounds like something you're supposed to say to be polite, but it is true. Not because we got to stand on the flight deck and have our teeth rattled by afterburners, or because the sailors made up one of the most hospitable and enthusiastic audiences I have ever seen, but because we got to meet some of the most amazing, talented, hard-working and hospitable people in the world during our stay," he continued, while Walker noted that the experience gave the sailors a chance to "feel a bit of Hollywood magic" that he hopes they too will not forget.
"After landing on the USS Abraham Lincoln and spending time with the brave and committed men and women of the United States Navy, it is clear that vampires don't stand a chance," producer Jim Lemley said.
"Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" gnaws into theaters everywhere June 22nd.
