Actor Robert Carlyle speaks on playing Dracula in Castlevania: Lords Of Shadow 2

Robert Carlyle is most well known for his roles in films like 28 Weeks Later, and the TV series Stargate Universe, but he’s about to also about to be known for his role as the iconic Gabriel Belmont/Dracula in Castlevania: Lords Of Shadow 2.

Apparently Dracula’s voice in Lords Of Shadow 2 started out as a ” big, muscly, barbaric, almost Conan-style character”, but when Robert came on, he team allowed him to give his input. He thought they should go in a bit of a different direction with his performance, making Dracula a much more realistic character.

“This team was really open to interpretation and gave me a lot of leeway to give this performance some gravitas and emotional weight that it needed.”

Very interested to see how Robert fairs in one of gaming’s(an fantasy’s) most iconic characters.
