Media news website Digital Spy reported on Thursday that Adi Shankar's Castlevania animated series is getting a third season. Voice actor Richard Armitage, who voices Trevor Belmont in the series, revealed that the cast was about to begin recording for the show's third season.
The show's eight-episode second season will premiere on Netflix this summer.
The first four-episode season premiered worldwide on Netflix last July.
The show's English cast stars:
- Graham McTavish as Dracula
- Richard Armitage as Trevor Belmont
- James Callis as Alucard

The Japanese dub cast stars Ryōtarō Okiayu, Shinichirō Miki, Naoya Uchida, and Ayaka Shimoyamada.
Producer Adi Shankar announced in 2015 that he was working with Fred Seibert and Kevin Kolde of Frederator Studios on an animated mini-series based on Konami's Castlevania game series. In particular, the story is based on the 1989 NES/Famicom game Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse. The game is set in 1476, and Dracula has Europe under his grip. Trevor Belmont journeys in an attempt to defeat Dracula, and enlists the sorceress Sypha Belnades, the pirate Grant Danasty, and Dracula's own half-vampire son, Alucard.
