"Orphan" Director Stakes His Claim On The Dracula Legend

Jaume Collet-Serra, director of the surprisingly entertaining Orphan, and the upcoming Liam Neeson thriller Unknown, will next be directing Harker.  It's the story of Jonathan Harker, the haunted narrator of the first half of the novel Dracula, but portrayed in an entirely new light.  Here, Harker is a Scotland Yard detective, and Dracula is his quarry.

The description kind of bores me, but I'm willing to hold out hope.  I enjoyed Orphan quite a bit, and I'm by no means a Dracula purist;  The novel is a bit of a bore, and there hasn't been an accurate adaptation made yet.  Bring on the revisionist goofiness!

But who should play Harker, a character previously portrayed, infamously, by Keanu Reeves?  Or Dracula?
