Van Helsing (2004) Cast Then vs Now (2026) 🦇 A Gothic Hunt Through Shadow and Legend

Before shared cinematic universes dominated the screen and monsters became misunderstood antiheroes, there was Van Helsing (2004) — bold, operatic, and gloriously dark.

When it stormed into theaters, it wasn’t just another creature feature… it was a sweeping gothic adventure that united the most legendary monsters in one explosive tale. Thunder cracked over Transylvania. Castles loomed against stormy skies. Werewolves howled, vampires ruled from candlelit towers, and one relentless hunter stood between humanity and eternal night.

Hugh Jackman brought intensity and mystery to Gabriel Van Helsing — a warrior haunted by fragments of his past, driven by duty yet searching for redemption. Kate Beckinsale’s Anna Valerious burned with courage and heartbreak, the last of her bloodline determined to end Dracula’s reign. Richard Roxburgh delivered a theatrical, magnetic Count Dracula — elegant, cruel, and unforgettable.

The film reveled in spectacle: spinning crossbows, masked balls drenched in moonlight, Frankenstein’s misunderstood creation, and breathtaking battles across rooftops and icy cliffs. But beneath the visual grandeur lived a quieter theme — identity, sacrifice, and the cost of fighting evil when you’re not sure who you truly are.

It was dramatic. It was romantic. It was unapologetically larger than life. And for many, it became a cult favorite — a love letter to classic Universal monsters reimagined for a new generation.

Now, in 2026, we return to the cast who brought this dark fantasy to life — revisiting who they were in 2004 and reflecting on how the years have transformed them.
