The team behind the Castlevania: Dracula's Curse animated movie has opened the official blog which will chronicle the production of the film. The direct-to-DVD 'toon is penned by nerd demi-god Warren Ellis and art directed by Eisner Award winning artist James Jean and looks to be a faithful retelling of the NES classic Castlevania III story.

There's very little content currently, but I suspect that virtually every detail will be covered over the course of development. Seems like a promising look into the film's creative process.

Since production is currently in its early stages, the production company is still seeking artists. If you love Castlevania and want to submit your digital portfolio, hit up the production blog for more details.

I'm going to try out for the voiceover role of Red Skeleton #3. Fingers crossed! Michael McWhertor
