The Castlevania: Nocturne animated series has revealed a new trailer ahead of its September 28 release on Netflix. The series revealed a new visual yesterday, teasing today’s announcement. Powerhouse Animation Studios is animating it, while Project 51 Productions is producing. Watch the new trailer:
The new project was announced after the finale of the original series. It is a continuation of the original Netflix Castlevania series which focused on Trevor Belmont and Slucard, and ended in 2021 after four seasons. A trailer for the new series is also set to be released tomorrow. The voice cast includes:
- Edward Bluemel as Richter
- Pixie Davies as Maria
- Thuso Mbedu as Annette
- Sydney James Harcourt as Edouard
- Nastassja Kinski as Tera
- Zahn McClarnon as Olrox
- Franka Potente as Erzsebet Báthory
The showrunner is Kevin Kolder, while Clive Bradley is listed as a creator and writer. The animated series is based on Konami’s Castlevania games, the first of which was published in 1986. Castlevania: Nocturne follows Richter, a descendant of the Belmont family. Netflix describes the story for Castlevania: Nocturne:
In the thick of the French Revolution, members of the so-called lower classes are rising up to fight inequality: “It’s the natural order for them to milk us dry with impossible rents and unpayable taxes,” Maria (Davies), a young leader, laments. Meanwhile, Richter Belmont (Bluemel) senses a far grimmer and greater danger. He’s picked up his family’s long-held tradition of vampire hunting, a vocation that goes back almost as long as a vampiric life span (in other words, forever). But he’s never seen anything quite like what he’s witnessing now — could the drastic uptick in vampire activity have something to do with the death of his mother? And what’s up with this rumored news of a supposed vampire messiah?
