Viime vuoden The Square -elokuvasta muistettava Claes Bang on saanut astetta suuremman roolin Draculana BBC:n tulevassa TV-sarjassa. Sarjaa puuhaavat Sherlockin tekijät. Tuottajina ja käsikirjoittajina toimivat Steven Moffat ja Mark Gatiss.
Claes Bang on syystäkin roolistaan innoissaan.
"I am thrilled to be taking on the role of Dracula, especially when the script is in the hands of the incredible talents of Steven Moffat, Mark Gatiss and the team responsible for Sherlock. I'm so excited that I get to dig in to this iconic and super-interesting character. Yes he's evil, but there's also so much more to him, he's charismatic, intelligent, witty and sexy. 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."
Kiitokset, Geektyrant
