Two quick clarifications: The green light for the Castlevania movie project is still on and Paul W.S. Anderson is still on board. The first one, without a doubt, is good news. On the other hand, the latter can be construed either as excellent or as not-quite-excellent - all depending on your take on the film director's previous work.

Gaming site IGN contacted Anderson and asked once and for all if he is still part of the project and if the movie is still going to push through. Apparently, after reports that the director is no longer working on the Castlevania movie, fans all across the internet assumed that this will eventually jeopardize the project. Anderson told the site,

Both Death Race and Castlevania are set up at Universal. The studio wants to make both films, but obviously there is a scheduling conflict which we are trying to resolve. I am very passionate about Castlevania and whatever happens I will remain actively involved in my role as writer and producer.
