Nicholas Hoult attends a self-help meeting in the first trailer for the eagerly-awaited Renfield, which sees Hoult play the titular servant of Count Dracula (Nicolas Cage). From what we see here, this is going to be a real romp!

Watch the Renfield trailer below:

Evil doesn’t span eternity without a little help. 

In this modern monster tale of Dracula’s loyal servant, Nicholas Hoult (Mad Max: Fury Road, X-Men franchise) stars as Renfield, the tortured aide to history’s most narcissistic boss, Dracula (Oscar® winner Nicolas Cage).  Renfield is forced to procure his master’s prey and do his every bidding, no matter how debased. But now, after centuries of servitude, Renfield is ready to see if there’s a life outside the shadow of The Prince of Darkness.  If only he can figure out how to end his codependency.  

Renfield is directed by Chris McKay (The Tomorrow War, The LEGO Batman Movie) from a screenplay by Ryan Ridley (Ghosted series, Rick & Morty series), based on an original idea by The Walking Dead and Invincible creator Robert Kirkman.

Ben Schwartz, Awkwafina and Adrian Martinez round out the cast for this monsterous comedy from Universal Pictures.

Renfield releases to UK cinemas on April 14th.
