Heath Ledger and Brian Helgeland, the star-director team behind A Knight's Tale, are about to get together once more. This time they're working on a movie called Sin Eater, which feature Ledger as priest.

Apparently, Ledger's priest will be battling his own demons as well as those in real life. At the moment of the movie, he's tracking a Sin Eater, an entity that gives people absolution from their sins without the conventional form of confession by literally eating their sins.

If their past collaboration is any indication of what's to come, I can't wait to see the demon's deeds choreographed to Weird Al Yankovich's "Eat It"...
