Dracula: Untold – Canon or Cannon Fodder? More Creature From the Black Lagoon Chatter!
Our buddies over at Collider caught up with Alex Kurtzman to find out if the Luke Evans starrer Dracula: Untold would be considered part of the new Universal Monsters Cinematic Universe (UMCU), and the answer was a resounding “No.”
Later on in the interview Collider asked some questions that led to talk of the new version of The Creature from the Black Lagoon, an all-time favorite around these parts, and Kurtzman had the following to say regarding it…
“I think if you look at something like Creature, the story starts to tell you what it wants to be and how big it wants to be. The beauty of monster movies is that because they’re psychologically complicated, there are certain monsters that are better served by being really intimate and really small, and so I think the goal would be to make room for… they don’t all have to be this size, but it’s certainly good to start that way because I think that’s how we reach as many people as we can. I’d love to think we can do smaller movies too. I would.”
First up for the UMCU is The Mummy (click here for the trailer and more!)
