Jonathan Rhys Meyers cast as Count Dracula in a new US TV series

Jonathan Rhys Meyers was active in opposing the construction of the M3 Motorway through the Tara landscape but you will not read that detail in the Irish newspapers. Poet Seamus Heaney called it the desecration of Tara- that was not reported either - only by the BBC.

irishCentral or is it Britishcentral?

I saw an Irish car today-with a pair of Mick's-anaemics my wife said, florescent like a pair of corpses with an " O Thulle " coffin on the roof. Dubliners, they were, Bram Stoker country and possibly down for the tomatoe picking season. It's the same every year, we go there and they come here. Ryan Air white-outs they are known as on the Riviera, burnt as toast in a day and cursing the French. Don't forget Bella Lugosi, the one and only Dracula, "BEVARE".

I hope he's not as difficult to work with as I've read.Good actor none the less.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no...he is so wrong as Dracula. One of Anne Rice's vampires, maybe. But Bram's? No, no, no, no, no!

He was born in Dublin and moved to Cork. But with all this British/Irish confusion, he'll be playing an American thus will have to change his accent? Not acceptable.

Jeez! Where's his publicist? He's Irish, not British.

WOW another vampire series ,where do I sign on.No creativity whatsover!

Cork man.

Right on,shuvonn-J.Rhy Meyers(not his family name) is Irish, not British, but I thought he hailed originally from Cork, not Dublin.

He's not British, he's Irish, born in Dublin.....
