We can finally check out the teaser for the Castlevania , an animated TV series produced by Netflix .
The teaser revealed that the series will feature several references that fans of the games will immediately recognize, as well as a soundtrack heavily inspired by classic titles in the Castlevania .
The production is by Adi Shankar (Dredd, The Grey) and is scheduled to premiere on July 7th. Director Shankar based the story on the game Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse, distributed in Japan by Konami in 1989.
Castlevania Synopsis:
The story takes place in 1476, when Dracula dominates all of Europe. Three important characters can join Trevor on his quest: Sypha Belnades, a young priestess with numerous magical powers who disguises herself as a man until the end of the game; Grant DaNasty, an agile pirate with the ability to climb walls and ceilings; and finally, Alucard, Dracula's son, a dhampir with the ability to shoot fireballs and transform into a bat. The game's ending varies depending on which character helps Trevor destroy Dracula.
Finally, the work would have a “dark and satirical” tone influenced by anime such as: Akira, Ghost in the Shell and Ninja Scroll.
