When a 15th-century prince (Caleb Landry Jones) witnesses the brutal murder of his wife (Zoë Bleu), he renounces God and damns heaven itself. Cursed with eternal life, he is reborn as Dracula, an immortal warlord who defies fate in a blood-soaked crusade to wrench his lost love back from death, no matter the cost. On the verge of reuniting, Dracula is hunted by a relentless priest (Christoph Waltz), sworn to end his immortal reign.

Blending horror, fantasy and romance, Besson’s take on the legendary vampire stars Caleb Landry Jones as Dracula alongside Academy Award winner Christoph Waltz, Zoë Bleu, Matilda De Angelis, Ewens Abid, David Shields and Guillaume de Tonquédec.

Dracula is written and directed by Luc Besson and based on the classic novel by Bram Stoker.
