A franchise-starting failure ditched in favor of something much worse becomes one of Netflix’s biggest hits
Imagine being viewed with such disdain that the director of Tom Cruise’s infamous attempt at rebooting The Mummy wants nothing to do with you. That’s about as insulting as it gets, so Alex Kurtzman declaring that Dracula Untold was unequivocally not part of Dark Universe canon must have stung pretty hard.
That also gives Gary Shore’s supernatural origin story the unwanted distinction of failing to kickstart two franchises; not only was it swept under the rug when Universal started over from scratch after one film, but it didn’t fare well enough at the box office to make sequels for Luke Evans’ Vlad a realistic possibility.
