All the classic monsters are en vogue again. From Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein to Nosferatu, fans can’t seem to get enough of these creatures. And that trend will continue in 2026 with Dracula, an upcoming film written and directed by Luc Besson with a gorgeous trailer.
This film certainly puts a different lens on Dracula’s origin story and we like all of it. The romance, the drama, the imagery, it all works together beautifully.
Here’s a synopsis of Dracula to go along with its trailer:
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.
