Mel Brooks set to lend voice to Adam Sandler's vampire dad in 'Hotel Transylvania 2'

Mel Brooks has been roped in to voice Vlad in Sony Pictures Animation's upcoming film 'Hotel Transylvania 2'.

The comedy legend will play the very old and grumpy vampire father to Adam Sandler's Dracula, Deadline.com reported.

The film will be directed by Genndy Tartakovsky, while Robert Smigel will write the script and the film, which is a sequel to Sony's 2012 family film, will see old-school supernatural meet modern-day cool when Vlad turns up at the hotel for an impromptu family get-together.
