Musical Montage: Ciara “Paint it Black”

For the end credits of 2015’s The Last Witch Hunter (which we’re talking about on the next Everything Actioncast), R&B singer Ciara provided a cover of the Roling Stones classic, “Paint it Black.”  Vin Diesel stars in the movie as Kaulder, the titular Last Witch Hunter, who was cursed with immortality and has spent centuries battling witches and other magical threats.  It’s also probably the only movie in cinema history to be based on the Dungeons & Dragons character of the main star.  The film didn’t fare particularly well at the box office and received abysmal reviews from critics, but in an update from 2020, Diesel said a sequel is being developed.  Ciara’s take on “Paint it Black” does not seem to have been released as a single, and it wasn’t included in the movie’s soundtrack album, which was exclusively the score by Steve Jablonsky.  Unfortunately, there also wasn’t a music video, so we didn’t see Ciara as a witch or possibly fighting witches. You can listen to the song below.
