Danish actor Claes Bang has been cast as Dracula the vampire in the BBC's new take on Bram Stoker's classic novel.
“ I'm so excited that I get to dig into this iconic and super interesting character.”
The BBC One mini-series has been written and created by Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss, the duo behind the award-winning Sherlock.
"I realise that there's a lot to live up to with all the amazing people that have played him over the years, but I feel so privileged to be taking on this incredible character."
The 51-year-old can currently be seen alongside Claire Foy in The Girl in the Spider's Web, the latest outing for Stieg Larsson's Lisbeth Salander character.
