Directed by Genndy Tartakovsky, Hotel Transylvania 2 was released in 2015 and continues the adventures of Dracula and his daughter Mavis in a fantastic family comedy. With Adam Sandler, Kad Merad and Alex Goude providing the lead voices, this sequel focuses on the question of heritage, difference and intergenerational transmission. Like the first opus, the film combines humor and imagination, and will soon be available on HBO Max.
The trailer reveals the arrival of Dennis, Dracula's grandson, and the comical efforts of the monster gang to pass on vampiric traditions to him.
Hotel Transylvania 2 will be available on HBO Max from October 15, 2025.
Synopsis: Dracula and his band of wacky monsters are back! At Hotel Transylvania, a lot has changed: Dracula has finally agreed to thaw his heart and open the door to humans. But he's worried about his grandson, Dennis: half-human half-monster, the kid's far too adorable for his taste, and he's likely to make a lousy vampire! So, when the boy's parents, Mavis and Johnny, go away, Drac enlists the help of his friends Frank, Murray, Wayne and Griffin to teach Dennis how to become a real monster. No one expected that Drac's father Vlad - a very grumpy, old-fashioned vampire - would choose this moment to show up at the hotel. And when he discovers that his great-grandson has human blood, all hell breaks loose...
The original version features Adam Sandler, Selena Gomez and Andy Samberg, joined by Mel Brooks as Vlad. In France, Kad Merad, Serge Faliu and Alex Goude lend their voices to the main characters. This mix of generations brings dynamism and humor to the voice cast.
Hotel Transylvania 2 explores the challenges of parenthood and the acceptance of differences through the character of Dennis. The film retains the energy and visual gags of the first opus, while introducing new themes linked to transmission and family relationships.
Aimed at young audiences aged 6 and over, the film will also appeal to parents with its nods to horror classics and multi-layered, accessible humor. Audiences who enjoyed Shrek 2 or Monstres Academy may find a similar atmosphere, mixing adventure, tenderness and comedy.
Produced by Sony Pictures Animation, Hotel Transylvania 2 extends the universe imagined by Genndy Tartakovsky. Available on HBO Max in October 2025, families will be able to follow the adventures of Dracula, Mavis and Jonathan, and set the stage for subsequent installments in the franchise.
