Stink your fangs into the hilarious horror-comedy Renfield this June, starring Oscar Winner Nicolas Cage as Dracula and Nicholas Hoult (The Menu) as Renfield.
The film is a modern take on the tale of Dracula’s loyal servant Renfield, the tortured aide to history’s most narcissistic boss, Dracula. Renfield is forced to procure his master’s prey and do his every bidding, no matter how debased. But now, after centuries of servitude, Renfield is ready to see if there’s a life outside the shadow of The Prince of Darkness. If only he can figure out how to end his codependency.
Awkwafina (The Farewell, Shang-Chi and the Legend of Ten Rings), Ben Schwartz (Sonic, The Afterparty), and Adrian Martinez (The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, Focus) co-star.
Chris McKay (The Tomorrow War, LEGO Batman Movie) directs from the script written by Ryan Ridley (“Rick and Morty”), based on an original pitch by “The Walking Dead” creator Robert Kirkman.
