The next installment of Netlix’s Castlevania universe, Castlevania: Nocturne, has set a premiere date of September 28 alongside the release of the official teaser trailer!
“France, 1792 — the height of the French Revolution. In a remote part of western France, the counter-revolutionary aristocracy has forged an alliance with a terrifying Vampire Messiah, who promises to ‘eat the sun’ and unleash an army of vampires and nightcreatures to crush the revolution and enslave humanity. Annette, a sorceress from the Caribbean, seeks out Richter Belmont, last descendant of the long-fabled family of vampire hunters, to lead the resistance.“
The cast includes Edward Bluemel, Thuso Mbedu, Pixie Davies, Sharon D. Clarke, Richard Dormer, Iain Glen, Sydney James Harcourt, Elarica Johnson, Nastassja Kinski, Zahn McClarnon, Aaron Neil, Franka Potente, and Sophie Skelton.
This eight-episode spin-off comes from showrunners Kevin Kolde (Castlevania) and Clive Bradley (Trapped), the latter of whom also serves as creator/writer. Sam Deats and Adam Deats share directing duties. Project 51 Productions and Powerhouse Animation produce for Netflix.
Based on Konami’s Japanese video game series, Netflix’s original Castlevania series ran for four seasons from 2017 through 2021.
