Caleb Landry Jones and Zoë Bleu Talk “Dracula” (2026)

Caleb Landry Jones is fantastic in the title role in Luc Besson’s “Dracula.”  It’s all about love in this one between the vampire and his bride, Elisabeta aka Mina Murray aka Zoë Bleu.  I spent some time with Jones and Bleu to talk about their interest in making the film, working with Besson, and how they find their characters’ heart.  Jones also talks about the hours of make-up needed for his transformation as Count Dracula.

“Dracula” (also known in other territories as “Dracula: A Love Tale”) from Vertical Entertainment is now out in theaters.
