Will Dracula Rise Again?
The captain of the recent ‘Dracula 2000’ sequels – follow-up’s to the Wes Craven titled frightfest from a few years back – has an idea that could serve as a bloody, butchering fourth bout for the fanged foe.
Talking to The Arrow, ‘Dracula 3 : The Legacy’ and ‘Dracula 2 : Ascension’ director Patrick Lussier says he has an idea for a fourth film in the series (the first was Wes Craven’s ‘Dracula 2000’), but whether it will ever happen depends on Dimension.
‘Joel [Soisson] and I have talked about what happens next to our characters several times. Jason London and Jason Scott Lee were both so amazing to work with that Joel and I would love to keep their adventure going. What direction would it take? Well, in my mind the Vatican would want to investigate what happened to Uffizi, their star attraction. Finding out would be costly for them and spiral everyone involved into an even darker terrain.’
And what about an Uffizi spin-off, with Jason Scott Lee headlining?
‘I dont know if an Uffizi spin-off is still possible due to the divorce between the Weinsteins and Disney. I tried to reclaim the rights to the character of Uffizi a year or so ago but Dimensions holding onto him. I know those at Dimension are big fans of this series and especially of Uffizi. Joel, Jason and Jason and I would love to continue the story. We have a whole arc of horrific and brooding adventures in mind but well have to see if the grown-ups will allow us to re-enter this world.’
