Nicolas Cage has been tapped to play Dracula in Universal Pictures’ Renfield, a
monster movie centered on Dracula’s familiar henchman starring Nicholas Hoult
in the title role. The Tomorrow War director Chris McKay is on board to helm the
pic, which is based on an original story outline from Robert Kirkman. Ryan Ridl
ey wrote the script.
McKay’s producing partner Samantha Nisenboim will be joining the project as exe
cutive producer. The film will be produced by Skybound Entertainment’s film tea
m including Kirkman, David Alpert, Bryan Furst and Sean Furst.
In the original Dracula novel, R.M. Renfield was an inmate at a lunatic asylum w
ho was thought to be suffering from delusions but actually is a servant of Dracu
la. Plot details of the movie weren’t announced, but it’s believed to take pla
ce during the present day and is not a period piece.
Cage is coming off some of his strongest revis in some time with the thriller
Pig and can be seen next playing himself in the highly-anticipated Lionsgate pic
The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. He is currently filming the western Bu
tcher’s Crossing. He is repped by WME, Stride Management, and attorney Patrick
Knapp at GGSSC
尼可拉斯·凱吉被選中在環球影業的新片《雷菲爾德》中扮演德古拉，這是一部以德古拉著
名的隨從爲中心的怪物電影，由尼古拉斯-霍爾特擔任主演。《明日之戰》的導演克里斯-麥
凱（Chris McKay）將執導這部電影，它是根據羅伯特-柯克曼的原創故事大綱改編的。Ryan
