Marvel Studios’ Eternals<\/em><\/strong><\/a>\u00a0director Chloe Zhao will take on the infamous Universal Pictures monster Dracula<\/em> in a new film that’s reported to be in the style of a”futuristic sci-fi western”. Zhao will stake it out\u00a0as a writer, director, and producer\u00a0of the film.<\/p>\n

In late September of 2018, Zhao was hired by Marvel Studios<\/a> to direct the upcoming superhero\u00a0film,\u00a0Eternals,<\/em>\u00a0which will star a diverse and talented cast including\u00a0Angelina Jolie and Kumail\u00a0Nanjiani. As recently as January, Zhao stated that she will also be a credited writer on the film. Not much else is known about the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe movie at the moment, but the official\u00a0synopsis states: “The saga of the Eternals, a race of immortal beings who lived on Earth and shaped its history and civilizations.”<\/p>\n

Zhao boarding the Dracula<\/em>\u00a0movie, first reported by The Hollywood Reporter, follows Universal’s continued push to hire acclaimed and talented directors<\/a> to helm their future monster films. Audiences recently saw director Leigh Whannell’s take on the Invisible Man<\/em> in the 2020 film of the same name. The film depicted the Invisible Man as an abusive partner, gaslighting and tormenting his ex-girlfriend, played brilliantly by Elizabeth Moss. The film earned high praise for its original and haunting modern-day take on the character.<\/p>\n

Universal’s push to create a shared universe for their legendary monsters started back in 2014 with Dracula Untold\u00a0<\/em>and continued in 2017 with The Mummy<\/em>, starring Tom Cruise. Neither film was particularity popular with\u00a0audiences and critics alike, but after Whannel’s unique take on\u00a0The Invisible Man<\/em>, it appears the studio will continue to attempt a new direction for these films.<\/p>\n

Not much is known about the next Dracula<\/em> film, or what its sci-fi western<\/a> setting will entail, but it’s certainly an original take on the world’s most famous bloodsucker.\u00a0Other upcoming Universal Monster adaptations include Elizabeth Banks’\u00a0The Invisible Woman<\/em> and Ghostbusters<\/em> director Paul Feig’s Dark Army.<\/em><\/p>\n

Zhao was recently nominated for a\u00a0Golden Globe<\/a> for Best Director for her work on 2020’s Nomadland<\/em>, making her the first Asian American woman to receive a\u00a0nomination for this award. She also received a screenwriting nomination for the film, which has received high critical praise, and already won several awards including The Peoples Choice Award at TIFF and the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival.<\/p>\n

Eternals<\/i> <\/strong>is currently scheduled for release on November 5th, 2021.<\/p>\n
