According to CinemaBlend, Adam Sandler has been cast as the voice of Count Dracula in new 3D cartoon film. The film, “Hotel Transylvania,” is being made by Sony Pictures Animation and is directed by Genndy Tartakovsky, the mastermind behind such great cartoons like “Dexter’s Laboratory,” “Samurai Jack,” and the original “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” cartoon series.
According to the official synopsis of the film, Dracula is not only a blood-sucking vampire, but also an over-protective dad:
Over-protective of his teenage daughter, Mavis, Dracula fabricates tales of elaborate dangers to dissuade her adventurous spirit. As a haven for Mavis, he opens the Hotel Transylvania, where his daughter and some of the world’s most famous monsters – Frankenstein and his bride, the Mummy, the Invisible Man, a family of werewolves, and more – can kick back in safety and peace. For Drac, catering to all of these legendary monsters is no problem – but his world could come crashing down when one ordinary guy stumbles on the hotel and takes a shine to Mavis.
