Imagine if the acclaimed director of Leon: The Professional and The Fifth Element and two-time Academy Award-winner Christoph Waltz, of Inglourious Basterds and Django Unchained, joined creative forces to adapt one of the most popular horror novels of all time. Starring Caleb Landry Jones (DogMan), Luc Besson’s upcoming horror-romance, Dracula: A Love Tale, reimagines Bram Stoker's Gothic classic as a doomed love story.
In A Love Tale, a 15th-century prince, Vlad of Wallachia (Jones), renounces God after the death of his wife, Elisabeta (Zoë Bleu Sidel). Now damned for turning his back on God, cursed to walk the earth as a vampire, the man who became Dracula searches through time for his lost love. In the film, Waltz plays the vampire-hunting priest in pursuit of the fabled fanged Count.
While on an exclusive set visit in near Paris, Collider’s Steve Weintraub had the opportunity to sit down to talk with Waltz on the floor of Dracula: A Love Tale’s ornamental crypt set. During this interview, which you can watch in the video above or read below, the actor discusses why he was thrilled to work with Besson on a story he believes needs a more modern retelling. Waltz also talks about working with the cast, how he likes to operate on set, how he prepares for roles, and so much more.
