Dracula is back and this time he’s played by Nicolas Cage, in the newest comedic take: Renfield.
As the title suggests the film focuses more on Renfield (Nicholas Hoult) and the difficult and dangerous situation he’s stuck in with Dracula (Nicolas Cage), his master.
While we have seen a lot of different films with these characters this one looks to change up a lot, making this a supernatural action flick as well. Renfield is looking for a way out, and his paths cross with a police officer played by Awkwafina when he helps save some lives.
Overall, the trailer looks fun and who can deny a chance to see Cage in a classic role with a comedic punch?
Renfield is directed by Chris McKay and stars Nicolas Cage, Nicholas Hoult, and Awkwafina. It will be released in theaters in the US on April 14th, 2023. For more international release dates click here.
