What happens in the Dracula trailer?

In this video, we’re introduced to Caleb Landry Jones portraying the latest incarnation of the Dark Prince, who has spent countless centuries searching for his one true love. The production boasts an impressive cast including Christoph Waltz playing a priest, Matilda De Angelis as Maria, Zoë Bleu in dual roles as Elisabeta and Mina, Ewens Abid as Jonathan Harker, Romain Levi as Captain Wernus, and many others.

1) In the director’s chair for Dracula is Luc Besson, a renowned French filmmaker recognized for films like Léon: The Professional and Lucy. This project marks Besson’s recent partnership with Jones, following their work together in 2023’s Dogman. The production is managed by Virginie Besson-Silla, while Philippe Corrot acts as executive producer.

In a past interview with Deadline, Besson expressed that the film will take a profoundly romantic approach. While Bram Stoker’s book delves into romance to some extent, this aspect hasn’t been fully explored. The core of our story revolves around a man who waits an entire eternity for the rebirth of his beloved wife. This narrative centers on the enduring hope for eternal love, leaving it up in the air whether the woman Dracula encounters is indeed her reincarnation or not.
