The series will expand from eight episodes to 10 in the upcoming season. There are no details on the plot of Season 3 so far, but the show will once again be written by Warren Ellis and directed by Sam Deats. Ellis serves as executive producer alongside Adi Shankar, Fred Seibert and Kevin Kolde.Read our Season 2 review of Castlevania , which we call one of the best video game adaptations of all time, and check out our interviews with Shankar in which he discusses adapting Symphony of Night, and why Dracula is such a tragic and effective antagonist While Shankar didn't reveal too much about the plot of Season 3, he did note that fans shouldn't expect the show to be completely faithful to the games.“As much as this show is Castlevania it’s not a tie-in to a video game. This is our own interpretation of Castlevania, call it the Castlevania Cinematic Universe," he told IGN. "Characters may pop up a little differently, they might pop up exactly the same. Events may play out exactly the same, things may cause them to deviate. The big thing going into this show is there’s a master plan to the narrative we’re devising.”
