British actress Samantha Barks is set to co-star in Universal Pictures’ Dracula, an origins story about the world’s first and most infamous vampire. She joins Sarah Gadon (Amazing Spider-Man 2), Dominic Cooper (Devil’s Double), Charlie Cox (“Boardwalk Empire”) and Luke Evans as the Count.

Dracula tells the story of a Transylvanian prince who becomes the first vampire to save his wife and child from a Turkish horde, subjecting his soul to eternal damnation. According to THR, Barks will play a baba yaga, a beautiful young woman capable of transforming into a savage witch.

Dracula is Barks first horror film. Her big break came last year in Tom Hooper’s adaptation of Les Misérables.

Full Moon Entertainment released today on Redbox its new Charles Band-directed horror-comedy Unlucky Charms, starring Disney’s Tiffany Thornton (“Sonny with a Chance”),  Alex Rose Wiesel (Switched at Birth), pin-up model Masuimi Max and Playboy Playmates Anna Sophia Berglund and Nikki Leigh (pictured).

Unlucky Charms tells the story of five hot chicks competing to win a spokesmodel gig for a high-end lingerie company. Making the competition more cutthroat are the group of creepy leprechauns running amok (exactly what “America’s Next Top Model” was missing).
