Warren Ellis On Animated Castlevania: "Gay Men Need Fanservice Too"

Warren Ellis, writer of the upcoming animated film Castlevania: Dracula's Curse, updated the film's production blog with news about the film's script.
In real terms, this means that we’ll have a locked script in five weeks or so. And that’s the point at which we commence the visual development in earnest. We all said from the beginning that everything has to emanate from the script, and our original conception of a videogame-derived film that was 1) a film for adults and 2) a good film first and a videogame-movie second.Also, a film where bastards explode when they get whipped, people get set on fire, and Alucard has no clothes on. Because girls and gay men need fan service too.
Fans of bishounen albinos will be thrilled. The film is an adaptation of the NES game Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse, with art direction handled by James Jean. Warren Ellis is known best for his work in comic books, including The Authority, Planetary, and Transmetropolitan. Castlevania: Dracula's Curse is expected to release on DVD in the latter half of 2008.








Naked Alucard... Yummy.
I'm a happy tranny now. (^_^)
James Jean is such a phenomenal talent in illustration--I am hoping for the best from this.
