In an interview featured in the 149th issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly, the game's director Hideki Kamiya confirmed that Dante's personality was inspired by Cobra from the manga series Space Adventure Cobra, and Joseph Joestar from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, while also saying that no movies in particular inspired the game. He stated:
"There are lots of different kinds of media that influenced this creation. As for the main character Dante, I was strongly influenced by a Japanese comic-book character named Cobra. Cobra is a character who has no fear and talks with lots of irony and provoking looks, even as he faces immense trouble. I always loved this character and his comic. I also referred to a character in another Japanese comic Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure [also a Capcom fighting game]. His name is Joseph Joestar and he's the main hero of the comic's second chapter. He has a very similar personality to Cobra. There are no specific movies that I referred to for DMC."
