Nicolas Cage is Dracula in this horror-comedy centred on the legendary vampire's henchman Renfield, played by Nicholas Hoult (The Favourite). Directed by Emmy-winner Chris McKay (The LEGO Batman Movie) and written by Robert Kirkman (Invincible) and Ryan Ridley (Rick and Morty), co-starring Awkwafina and Academy Award-nominee Shohreh Aghdashloo (The Expanse).
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.
