Netflix held a new livestream called Drop 01, in which it focused on its new animated adaptations that are in the works — including several based on famous games franchises. Among other shows, it’s making animated series based on Tomb Raider, Devil May Cry, Far Cry: Blood Dragon and the previously announced Castlevania: Nocturne. It also showed a first look at the new chapter of Sonic Prime.
One of the first new reveals at the event was a very brief teaser trailer for a new Devil May Cry anime adaptation. It doesn’t reveal much except for the design for hero Dante, who sports a shorter haircut than he has in the games and his iconic red coat. He also appears to be voiced by a new actor, rather than series veteran Reuben Langdon. Castlevania’s Adi Shankar is the showrunner. Shankar said in a statement that he and writer Alex Larsen “love these characters, we are part of the fandom, and vow to surpass the exceptionally high bar we set for ourselves.”
