VLAD har intet med vampyrer at gøre

Som jeg allerede antydede for et par dage siden, så har den kommende film om Vlad III Dracula - eller Vlad Ţepeş - intet med vampyrer at gøre. Det har manuskriptforfatteren Charlie Hunnam nu bekræftet i et interview med Entertainment Weekly. Hertil siger han:

"As the script stands now, we don’t touch on vampirism. That was my one non-negotiable area when we were developing it, and thankfully, nobody suggested that we should delve into it at the end. But you can clearly see the things that Bram Stoker took…. Vlad was such a brutal man, and the trick is to make him sympathetic. That was the challenge, and if we’ve succeeded in any way in this script, I truly believe that it’s genuinely making him sympathetic."

Så skulle det vist være på plads. Kilde: Entertainment Weekly
