Netflix’s Castlevania Voice Cast Has Been Revealed

The Netflix anime-style adaptation of Castlevania can't get here soon enough. The debut trailer for the forthcoming series has us all kinds of excited, and promises a lot of blood-curdling action that fans of the series can truly enjoy.

Today, producer Adi Shankar, alongside actor Graham McTavish (who will voice Dracula in the series), posted a new YouTube video to reveal the full voice cast for the show, which will be making its premiere in just a few short weeks now. You can check out the announcements in the video above, though we have a breakdown for you before.

Richard Armitage, who previously appeared as Thorin in Peter Jackson's adaptations of The Hobbit books, will play Trevor Belmont, ripped straight from Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse from the Nintendo Entertainment System. Joining him in battle will be Alucard, who will be voiced by James Callis, who previously appeared as Dr. Gaius Baltar in Battlestar Galactica.

In addition, Alejandra Reynoso will voice Sypha Belnades, and Emil Swallow is on board to voice Lisa Tepes, who will serve as Aculard's mother and Dracula's wife.

But here's a recognizable voice you may not have been expecting – Matt Frewer! Yep, the star of Max Headroom and Orphan Black will be voicing a character simply known as The Bishop.

The video also revealed that veteran actor Tony Amendola is on board with the project as well, voicing another mysterious character, known only as The Elder.

It sounds like the Castlevania series is pretty star-studded, and McTavish will definitely make for a good Dracula, based on his tone in the video above. As far as seeing what part of the story Sypha, The Bishop and The Elder play, we'll have to wait a little while longer. But the rest of the characters should easily be recognizable, especially to fans that have conquered the likes of Dracula's Curse and the 1997 classic Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

We'll see how the Castlevania series fares when it arrives on Netflix on July 7th. One thing's for sure – fans are going to want to binge the hell out of that show.
