‘Renfield’: First trailer of Dracula film starring Nicolas Cage and Nicholas Hoult out; Watch here
The first trailer of the Dracula film, ‘Renfield’ starring Nicholas Hoult and Nicolas Cage was released by Universal. While Nicolas Cage will be seen as Dracula, Nicholas Hoult will play Renfield.

As other members of the group appear concerned for Renfield, he explains that his boss is “different”. Subsequently, in the trailer, the screen then flashes multiple back-to-back scenes of action including a clip in which Renfield is running through a series of rooms that are lit only by candlelight. After many others, the camera then closes up on Dracula’s mouth with pointed teeth. The vampire then says ‘Renfield’.
Renfield will hit the screens on April 14, 2023, showing the lead character battling his real life while dealing with the “boss” Dracula. The movie also marks the first major studio role of Nicolas Cage since ‘Shost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance which was released in 2011. His inclusion in the cast has already generated a buzz around the upcoming film.
The film is directed by Chris McKay and written by Ryan Ridley. As per reports, the major source of inspiration for ‘Renfield’ was in the likes of Taika Waititi’s FX horror comedy series, What We Do In The Shadows. One of the most peculiar factors of the upcoming Cage-starrer movie is that it is set in the modern-day 21st century.
