Summit Entertainment Takes on Dracula with Vlad

By Uncle Creepy
December 7th, 2009

Ah, Summit Entertainment. They've tantalized a generation of teens and cougars with their vampire and werewolf laden tales in The Twilight Saga. Now they're looking to move on to the one vampire with some real bite -- Dracula. He had better not friggin' sparkle!

According to THR's Heat Vision Blog Summit is developing an action-oriented take on the most famous of the fanged! The company has picked up Vlad, a script by actor Charlie Hunnam, and is in negotiations with music video director and photographer Anthony Mandler to direct the project. Brad Pitt (yes, that Brad Pitt) is producing with Dede Gardner via the duo's Plan B Entertainment production shingle.

Look for more soon!
