Noah Wyle is set to return as the brilliant adventure-seeking Flynn 
Carsen in Electric Entertainment's third installment of TNT's hugely 
successful Librarian franchise with THE LIBRARIAN: THE CURSE OF THE 
JUDAS CHALICE. 
 
Bob Newhart and Jane Curtin will also reprise their roles, with Bruce 
Davison (X-Men, KNIGHT RIDER) and Stana Katic (FEAST OF LOVE) joining 
the cast. 
 
Jonathan Frakes (STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION), who directed the 
second LIBRARIAN installment, THE LIBRARIAN: RETURN TO KING SOLOMON'S 
MINES, will once again take the helm. 
 
Electric Entertainment's Dean Devlin, Kearie Peak and Marc Roskin are 
executive producing. Wyle and Electric's Phil Goldfarb are producing, 
with the company's Rachel Olschan co-producing. 
 
The project began shooting in New Orleans this week. 
 
THE LIBRARIAN: THE CURSE OF THE JUDAS CHALICE opens with a restless 
Flynn attempting to assimilate back into his career as the Librarian at 
the New York Metropolitan Library after many adventures abroad. 
 
Led to New Orleans by strange dreams, he finds himself in the midst of 
uncovering a conspiracy that involves the notorious vampire, Prince Vlad 
Dracula. Once again, Flynn must overcome his fears and protect one of the 
world's most sacred artifacts, The Judas Chalice, or face the 
consequences of it falling into the wrong hands. 
 
Newhart returns as Judson, who once having been the Librarian, now 
serves as head of the library. He is always concerned about the fate of 
the world, and as a former Marine is pretty handy to have around in a 
fight against good and evil. 
 
Curtin comes back as Charlene, the extremely serious-minded, no-nonsense 
personnel director for the Library. She is beyond strict and is a huge 
stickler for receipts. 
 
Katic plays Simone Renoir, a gorgeous young New Orleans jazz club singer 
who uses her hypnotic performances to charm an off-guard Flynn. She has 
made it her mission to protect a pendant that could unlock the secret to 
the whereabouts of the famous Judas Chalice. 
 
Turned into a vampire by the infamous Vlad Dracula 400 years ago, Simone 
has been on a life-long hunt to find the man who condemned her soul to 
walk the night forever. She teams up with Flynn to outwit those hoping 
to find the Chalice and use it for their evil agenda. 
 
Davison plays Professor Lazlo, an elderly, crippled man who is a 
brilliant professor at the University of Bucharest. Seemingly harmless, 
he is taken hostage by the villainous Kubichek, who wants Lazlo to lead 
him to the Judas Chalice. 
 
TNT's LIBRARIAN franchise of movies has proved enormously successful for 
the network. The first installment, THE LIBRARIAN: QUEST FOR THE SPEAR, 
ranked as ad-supported cable's No. 1 movie of 2004. 
 
The second installment, THE LIBRARIAN: RETURN TO KING SOLOMON'S MINES, 
ranks as ad-supported cable's No. 1 original movie sequel of all time 
and placed among the top five movie telecasts of 2006.
