Some fans are still complaining that this breaks with canon, and that Dante was always supposed to have white hair, but part of me thinks that people who are sticklers for canon in a series about fighting demons in the most over-the-top form fashionable are kind of doing it wrong to begin with.
Not necessarily a break in Cannon more along the lines of retelling the RARELY TOLD story of Tony Redgraves and how he became the Dante everyone knows. It looks interesting and is actually trying to stay current with the story. That's what I like about this trailer. It's actually trying add on to the story rather than just give a half-assed reboot.

So no I don't think this breaks cannon all that much as I've been dying to see what Dante did before he became an official demon hunter. Sorry it's impossible to find the books anywhere that's why.

So I may be skeptical but I can at least look at this trailer and smile knowing that they made an improvement
What who is Tony Redgraves? that's not Dante is it? that was never Dante's name his farther was Sparda a demon who rebelled against Mundus the emperor of the underworld and trapped him there to save humanity, after that Sparda reverted to a human form (look it up) and married a human witch, who bared him twin sons named Dante and Virgil, later some fanatics tried to open hell on earth using the old relic Teminegru but Sparda stopped them but had to sacrifice a mortal priestess and his own demon power to seal the tower and split that power up in three thing his sword which was the lock and two amulets which were the keys that he gave to his sons shortly after that some fanatics killed Sparda and his wife hence why Virgil believes in gaining power because he believes his dad was not strong enough and Dante became a reclusive resenting humans for what they did after what his dad did for them he only ever hung round Virgil and spoke to him over time Dante starting seeing things differently to Virgil and they went separate ways on their birthday never to see each other till DMC3 there is the back-story he was never human born or called Tony he was born from a witch and a demon hence the devil trigger ability and not a permeate state of either demon or human only his farther and Virgil can do what he does sort of shifting, but his dads true form was the demon wheres Dante and Virgil's was human.
Read both the Devil May Cry Novels. It's a brief history of Dante and how he went by the Alias of Tony Redgraves. This all took place a little over a year before Devil May Cry 3. Some stuff happened and Dante ended up working with a guy who covered his whole face in Bandages and went by the name Gilver who later was revealed to be Vergil (DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING XD).

Long Story Short, it showed what caused Dante and Vergil to go at it in DMC 3 and how he went by the Alias of Tony Redgraves. Look it up.
Which novel?
