Known for both his big
screen adventures (The Grey, Dredd, The Lone Survivor), and his Bootleg Universe
(The Punisher: Dirty Laundry, Venom: Truth in Journalism, Power/Rangers),
producer Adi Shankar has announced that he will be making a "super violent"
Castlevania mini-series with Fred Seibert and Kevin Klonde from Frederator, the
studio behind Adventure Time and The Fairly OddParents.
Collider caught wind of Shankar's post on Facebook and immediately asked the irreverent producer a series
of questions like which game will the mini-series be based on, rights, and
inspirations.
Question: How did the project come about?
Adi Shankar: In a meeting with Kevin Kolde … he’s a
really awesome dude. Frederator and Kevin acquired the rights a few years
ago.
What are you basing the story on?
Shankar: Castlevania III.
What kind of violence/gore can you show?
Shankar: There will be a lot. The goal is to
bring hard hitting anime to the America and be America’s first animated series
for adults.
What
animated stuff would you say influences the look and feel of your series?
Shankar: Akira,
Ghost in a Shell, Ninja Scroll, Young Justice aka the best series ever
and it shouldn’t have been canceled wtf.
Are you planting easter eggs that only the gamers will
know?
Shankar: Yes. Always yes.
Are you
already thinking about music? Will it have a score or songs or both?
Shankar: The first thing I thought about was music and
how we needed to avoid the traditional sword-and-sandal orchestra cliche and
use the heavy metal electro guitar vibe found in the early games.
