The Hobbit star had just finished the 2014 film Dracula Untold when he first met His Majesty, who was then Prince of Wales.
The 15th century Romanian ruler Vlad III, also known and Vlad the Impaler, Vlad Tepes and Vlad Dracula
The actor, 43, played a fictional version of the 15th century Romanian ruler Vlad III, also known and Vlad the Impaler, Vlad Tepes and Vlad Dracula.
In the movie, Vlad turns into a vampire.
Speaking on The Jonathan Ross Show, Luke said: “I remember the first time I spoke to Charles. I was super nervous.
“He came up to me and said, ‘What are you working on?’ and I said, ‘I’ve just finished a movie about Vlad, who turns into Dracula.’ And he went ‘Funnily enough, I’m related to Vlad Tepes.’
“I thought he was joking, but went through his lineage to Vlad.”
Bloodthirsty Vlad III ruled the former territory of Wallachia and killed thousands — mainly through impalement.
Author Bram Stoker used Dracula for the title of his 19th Century novel. Christopher Lee played the character in films.
King Charles is a great grandson 16 times removed of Vlad III.
He can trace his lineage through his great grandmother Queen Mary, wife of George V, to Vlad IV, the half-brother of the infamous ruler.
Charlie Boy is just upset that Vlad killed his muzzie buddies.
Most of that royalty lineage is inbred. 😲😂👍
We need more like Vlad III.
My man Vlad sure knew how to deal with his enemies.
Charles lineage is through the Battenberg family which was royal blood in the eastern Balkans. No real surprise here.
The bitch, Hillary is no countess! She only counts the money that she and Bill have scrounged from the world of idiots that support the crooked pair! I wish the Monkey pox on them!!
Well...Charles did say he wanted to be a tampon.
Charles the Emailer doesn’t exactly strike fear into the opponents now does it?
Prince F’r needs to F Princess Tampon and leave the rest of us alone for all eternity...
we know how Vlad responded to a muslim invasion
king charles the turd threw down the welcome mat
Well that sucks.
It didn't long at all for the penultimate upper class twit goes full on looney.
Vlad kicked Ottoman ass and impaled their brutal tough guy losers on pikes to show his good work.
I would be proud if I had his dracula blood running through my arteries.
Somethings don’t need to be shouted from the digital rooftops, not even when said in good humor.
Oh yeah? We have Hillary. Hillary is named after Sir Edmund Hillary.
Not a huge surprise. The royal families have been inter-marrying all over Europe for centuries - probably longer.
That means he is a bloodsucking twit … he probably love, love, loves him some comet pizza too!
Grandson, 16 times removed…..
