Universal Monsters’ Vampire Movie ‘Renfield’ Sinks Its Teeth Into A Release Date

Filming has now begun on the upcoming Universal Monster movie Renfield, based on the character made famous in Bram Stoker’s Dracula. The premiere date has just been announced for Reinfied, which will sink its teeth into theaters on April 14, 2023. Nicolas Cage will bear his fangs as the legendary Count Dracula, in the movie that is based on an original idea by “The Walking Dead” creator Robert Kirkman. Chris McKay (The Tomorrow War) is directing the movie, with Nicholas Hoult (Warm Bodies, Mad Max: Fury Road) playing the title role of Renfield, Dracula’s henchman.
