The trailer for The Last Voyage of the Demeter has dropped! ?
Adapted from the “The Captain’s Log”, a chapter from the 1897 Bram Stoker novel Dracula, The Last Voyage of the Demeter stars Corey Hawkins, Aisling Franciosi, Liam Cunningham, and David Dastmalchian. And judging from the 2-minute and 34-second clip, they have retained the dark and menacing tone of the novel.
This movie will explore how Dracula arrived in London, told from the viewpoint of the crews aboard the ship.
Great idea to make a whole movie about the Demeter part of Dracula. Looks promising.

You may also notice that this is the second Dracula film this year released by Universal Pictures, taking off after Renfield. Fans speculate that this was probably a part of Universal Picture’s plan to expand their Dark Universe, which was shelved after the failure of The Mummy.
