Who Will Play ‘Dracula’ in Dario Argento’s 3D Re-telling?
With Marta Gastini, Rutger Hauer, Asia Argento, Miguel Angel Silvestre and Miriam Giovanelli already locked in for Dario Argento’s Dracula 3D, it was unclear who would be donning the Count’s cape and fangs.
Screen Daily revealed that Thomas Kretschmann (Resident Evil: Apocalypse, King Kong) has landed “the lead” role in Argento’s re-telling of Bram Stocker’s classic novella. Assumptions are that he’s Vlad.
Some early art was revealed at Cannes along with this insanely long synopsis.

From New Line Cinema and producer Zach Cregger (Director: Barbarian) comes the upcoming sci-fi/horror movie Companion, which has officially received its “R” rating this week.
Companion has been rated “R” by the MPA for…
“Strong violence, sexual content, and language throughout.”
The film’s cast includes Sophie Thatcher (“Yellowjackets,” The Boogeyman) alongside Rupert Friend (Separation), Harvey Guillén (“What We Do in the Shadows”), Lukas Gage (“You”), Megan Suri (It Lives Inside), and Jack Quaid (Scream, “The Boys”).
Described as a sci-fi/horror movie, Companion will mark the directorial debut of Drew Hancock, who also wrote the script. At this time, plot details are under wraps.
In other words, we have no idea what to expect from this one. Stay tuned for more.
