Renfield

During a late interview withCollider , Nicolas Cage confirmed his Dracula does n’t “ have a lot of filmdom time ” in Renfield .

The movie ’s really not about me , Dracula rather , I do n’t have a lot of covert fourth dimension . It ’s really Nick Hoult ’s film , and it ’s about Renfield . I did n’t have the time , like the two - time of day narrative to really labour late into Dracula ’s commiseration per se . It ’s not that . But I did have enough screen sentence to be able to endeavor to rise a soda - art style to the quality that hopefully will be a nice contribution to the other performer that have done it , that have had their take on this fabled quality in both literature and cinema .

Evil Dead Rise

In conversation withEmpire cartridge holder , director Lee Cronin stated he did n’t “ take ” to set Evil Dead Rise in a urban center , he simply “ wanted ” to .

To me it felt very natural to make that move . It was n’t forced in some way of like , ‘ We need Evil Dead in the city ! ’ It was , ‘ I want a family , and I want it to be urban ’ . I still treat it very much the same direction . I view the apartment as the cabin , and the hallways and the other aspect of the building as the forest .

Relatedly , co - showrunner Neil Druckman discover that because the series did n’t require its actors wearing face masks , the show ’s cordyceps fungus propagates itself through underground “ tendrils ” or else of airborne spore .

finally , those conversations [ about not using gas masks ] direct us to these tendril . And then , just thinking about how there ’s a passage that happens from one infected to another , and like fungus does , it could become a web that is interlink . It became very scary to think that they ’re all working against us in this unified way , which was a concept that I really like , that got develop in the show .
