Dracula Untold, Tom Hiddleston and Wales – the best of Luke Evans’ Twitter Q&A

Luke Evans is a busy man. From starring as Vlad in upcoming flick Dracula Untold to playing Bard the Bowman in the Hobbit movies, he’s one of Britain’s most exciting film stars. So, when RadioTimes.com were offered the chance to hand him the controls to our Twitter account, we jumped at it. 

Earlier this week, we gave Luke’s fans the chance to put forward their burning questions – and you lot responded in your droves. Sadly, he didn’t have time to get through them all, but here are our favourite answers… 

.@1nOnlyRina @TheRealLukevans Francis Ford Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula. I loved Gary Oldman's portrayal.

@JillianNixon The one that's in the posters is my favourite but it was very uncomfortable to fight in!

.@lucyalexrobbo @TheRealLukevans The Charles Dance scene in the cave with the master vampire. He was terrifying!

.@_AlyaaNajwa19 @TheRealLukevans I did a lot of research, read a lot of books, watched a lot of 'docos'. And trained like an animal!
