MaXXXina star My Gothic is currently in production on Guillermo del Toroit’s been long overdue Frankenstein film and recently spoke about his experience on the project in an interview with GamesRadar, and it seems like he’s having a great time!
She said: “It was amazing. It’s everything I wanted it to be and more. I love Guillermo, I love working with him, he’s an incredible director, everyone knows that, but he’s also a wonderful person. And I’m very excited.”
The gothic stars star in the film along with Jacob Elordiwho plays The Monster, Oscar Isaacwho will play Victor Frankenstein; and Christoph WaltzWe don’t know for sure who will play Goth, but it’s rumored she’ll play the role of the Bride.
Del Toro is writing, directing and producing the film and has previously said of the project: “It’s a film I’ve wanted to make for 50 years, ever since I saw the first Frankenstein.
“I had an epiphany, and it’s basically a movie that required a lot of growth and a lot of tools that I wouldn’t have had 10 years ago. Now I’m brave enough or crazy enough or something, and we’re going to deal with it.”
The director previously shared his love for the property, but also explained that he was afraid to make it: “For me, Frankenstein is the pinnacle of everything, and part of me wants to do a version of it, and part of me has been holding back for more than 25 years.
“I dream of making the greatest Frankenstein ever, but then if you do it, you’ve made it. Whether it’s great or not, it’s done. You can’t dream it anymore. That’s the tragedy of a director.
“You can dream something, but once you’ve achieved it, you’ve achieved it. That’s it. You got a 10 or a 6.5, but you were already at the Olympics and you were judged.”
Producer J. Miles Dale He went on to say that it will be a “deeply emotional” film, and added: “In the last two films, certainly with Nightmare Alley and then with Pinocchiowe’ve been through the whole father-son thing. And Guillermo and I have both lost our fathers in the last few years.
“When you have a strong father figure, it’s a big part of our lives. This version of Frankenstein is very much in that thematic vein. So, I feel like this is the third film in Guillermo’s father trilogy. It’s exciting and when you read the script, it’s very emotional and, of course, very iconic.”
The film is based on Mary Shelley’s novel and tells the story of Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant but self-centered scientist who brings a creature to life in a monstrous experiment that ultimately leads to the downfall of both the creator and his tragic creation.
