Originally, Luke Evans’ Dracula Untold was supposed to be the kickoff, but that didn’t exactly work out.
However, it looks like he may still get another crack at playing Dracula in the Universal Monsters universe, and it sounds like Universal may try to avoid recasting the role.
We’ll have to wait and see if Luke Evans gets another crack at it as these new monster movies make their way to theaters.
Universal is moving ahead on their shared monsters cinematic universe, which officially debuts with Tom Cruise’s The Mummy next year.
