"I'm so excited that I'll be able to delve into this iconic and super-interesting character," Bang said in a statement. "Yes, he's mean, but he has a lot more to it, he's charismatic, intelligent, witty and bady, and I realize there's a lot to do with all the amazing people who played him over the years. years. "
Bang made waves for his role in "The Square" by Ruben Ostlund, winner of the Palme d'Or last year. His performance earned him the Best Actor Award at the European Film Awards.
"Big, dark and macabre at the same time," said production company Hartswood Films and screenwriters Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss. "Hell has a new boss."
"Dracula" was commissioned by the BBC and is a co-production between the broadcaster and Netflix. The show is produced by Gatiss, Moffat and Sue Vertue for Hartswood and Ben Irving for the BBC. Larry Tanz manages the series for Netflix.
