NBC is sinking its teeth into the vampire business.

The network's entertainment chairman Bob Greenblatt told critics Tuesday that they are developing a 10-episode series of "Dracula" starring Golden Globes winner Jonathan Rhys Meyers.

"We're going to bring a 'Tudors" sensibility to Dracula," Greenblatt said.

An airdate was not released.
