TORONTO and VANCOUVER, July 7, 2017 - Netflix has ordered a second season of Castlevania, its new animated series based on the popular video game series.

Inspired by the classic video game series from Japan's Konami, Castlevania is an animated project written by best-selling author and comic book legend Warren Ellis.

Joe: Renegades) as Sypha Belnades.

WOW! and Frederator are honored to have the privilege of bringing it to life as an entertainment series that will continue its story for years to come," added Fred Seibert, Chief Creative Officer of WOW! Unlimited Media and CEO of Frederator Networks and Frederator Studios.
