Imax, Universal Pictures and Legendary Pictures today announced that DRACULA UNTOLD, the origin story of the man who became Dracula, starring Luke Evans (pictured above), will be digitally re-mastered into the immersive Imax format and released into Imax theatres internationally starting Oct. 2 and in North America beginning Oct. 17.

Gary Shore directs and Michael De Luca produces this epic action-adventure that co-stars Sarah Gadon, Dominic Cooper, Diarmaid Murtagh and Samantha Barks.

We still don’t have an official synopsis for DRACULA UNTOLD, the film will reportedly hew closely to the true story of Vlad Tepes, aka Vlad the Impaler, before veering off into supernatural territory.

“Dracula is perhaps the most iconic horror story ever told, and this new twist on this classic tale is sure to appeal to Imax audiences around the world,” said Greg Foster, CEO of Imax Entertainment and Senior Executive Vice President, Imax Corp. “We’re excited to have the opportunity to once again partner with the terrific team at Universal and our long time collaborators at Legendary as we present this exciting film in IMAX.”
