Christopher Lee may have pulled out of The Wicker Tree.

For those not in the know The Wicker Man (the original not the awful remake) has a sequel of sorts, Cowboys For Christ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowboys_for_Christ which is currently being filmed (as The Wicker Tree) around these parts in Scotland and over the pond in Texas.

Christopher Lee was due to return to the character of Lord Summerisle but rumours emerging from the location shoot seem to indicate that Christopher Lee has had to pull out die to ill health.

Fingers and toes crossed that if the stories are true he gets well soon.
