Blumhouse and Miramax's modernised Dracula movie, Mina Harker, has been cancelled just three weeks before it was due to begin filming, according to a new report.
The new Dracula movie being produced by cult horror company Blumhouse and Miramax has officially been axed just three weeks before shooting was due to start. Mina Harker, as the film was titled, was set to reinvent Bram Stoker’s classic gothic novel for the modern age, focusing on the female protagonist and love interest famously played on screen in the past by actresses including Winona Ryder.
Now, according to Deadline, production on Mina Harker has been cancelled with just weeks to go before the start of shooting. The film was deep into pre-production, with a screenplay penned by Phil Hay and Manfredi that would see a modern day Dracula going by the name of Vladimir. Crew members on the film were reportedly informed just hours before the news of the film's cancellation broke. Miramax is said to have exited the project due to "creative differences with the filmmaker.
