Castlevania movie adaptation gets new writer, director
A development has just happened for the upcoming movie adaptation of the successful video game franchise Castlevania. According to horror film website Bloody-Disgusting, Paul W.S. Anderson is no longer part of the project as the director “wanted to focus” on his remake of Death Race.
What happens now to the movie Castlevania? According to the said website, the new director is going to be Sylvain White and the whole script is being revamped by Ian Jeffers. One of White’s latest projects is the movie Stomp the Yard while Jeffers is mostly known for his adaptation of Death Sentence featuring the actor Kevin Bacon.
It should be remembered that Paul W.S. Anderson mentioned back in March of this year that he will remain actively involved in the movie adaptation no matter what happens because he has grown attached to it. It is still unclear as of now whether Rogue Pictures would want to retain some of Anderson’s ideas for Castlevania.
To help you decide if this development is a good thing or not, be informed that part of Anderson’s plot for the movie adaptation includes a knight from Transylvania hiding from the Turkish Army in Dracula‘s castle.
