You can, ahem, count on some cool Dracula action with Konami's upcoming video game sequel "Castlevania: Lords Of Shadow 2," which features the voice of Robert Carlyle as the uber-vamp. To be released on PlayStation, Xbox 360 and PC on Feb. 15, 2014, the game puts Dracula in the forefront, a first for the franchise.
In the video below, Dave Cox, Producer and Studio Head for Konami Digital Entertainment BV's European Production, and Enric Alvarez, Studio Head of Development at Mercury Steam, talk about this new creative direction. The duo talk about the design and motivation for the character, who will be set in a modern-day world, as well as the Dracula movies they'll pay homage to in "Lords Of Shadow."

According to FEARnet, in an interview with Nerdist (as reported by Polygon), Dorn said a new movie based on the epic monster-hunting video game series is happening. Moreover, he is attached to play an ancient werewolf - or is that a were-Worf? Yes, yes it is.
Says Dorn, "I'm playing a werewolf that's been around for a gajillion years who works for this vampire. It's not too far from Worf because there's a lot of killing and jumping and sword fights and everything."
Previously, Resident Evil director Paul W.S. Anderson and James Wan were involved in a Castlevania adaptation, but it's unclear if this treatment is connected to that.
