Variety berichtet:

Zitat
Universal Pictures genre label Rogue has boarded Paul W.S. Anderson's Dracula project "Castlevania," a $50 million vidgame adaptation produced and co-financed by Crystal Sky Entertainment.

Rogue will distribute the pic in North America and is also taking rights in the U.K., Spain and German-speaking territories. Crystal Sky is handling sales for the rest of the world.

Anderson's script spans many time periods but mostly takes place in 15th century Transylvania. It reps a fresh take on the much-filmed Dracula legend, mining back to its genesis in the story of the Romanian prince Vlad the Impaler.

"You could almost call this movie 'Dracula Begins,'" Anderson said.

"It's an action/horror project in the vein of 'Underworld' and 'Blade,' and hopefully it will be a big franchise for us," Rogue co-prexy Andrew Rona said.

[...]Anderson and his producing partner Jeremy Bolt are scouting locations in Hungary and Romania, with a view to shooting next spring. The castle interiors will be constructed in Budapest.

Hmm, mal sehen. Crystal Sky Productions hat ja auch bei Ghost Rider die Finger im Spiel. Insofern man das als Anhaltspunkt sehen kann

So bissl was neues

Zitat
Resident Evil director Paul W.S. Anderson is attached to direct the $50 million film. The fact that Dimension Films supposedly dropped the project after they failed to embrace Anderson's script worries me quite a bit. That and the fact that Anderson is every bit a hack director.

The film will span many time periods, but most of the action will take place in 15th century Transylvania.
