Has there been plans to make Castlevania into a movie? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

With the popularity of the video game Castlevania I have always wondered if there will be a horror movie based on Castlevania in the future? Because I have played the Castlevania video games and I think a movie based on Castlevania would be really cool and have good special effects

There's one in development. But considering the bad video game movie adaptations outweigh the good by a lot, I don't have much hope for it actually being good.

SAW director James Wan was said to be co-writing the script and directing it for Paul W.S. Anderson (Resident Evil) to produce way back in 2009.

Financial problems stalled the production.

So there is actually gonna be a Castlevania movie in development? That would be so cool because Castlevania was a favorite video game of my cousin and when I would visit him my cousin would let me play it with him on his Nintendo. and when my parents returned home from our vacation my mom bought me my own copy of Castlevania and so now I have two Castlevania games and the same Castlevania copy on my Nintendo Gameboy Advance. I wonder who will play the role of Simon Belmont in the Castlevania movie? Because it would be good fun to see Castlevania come to life on the big screen
