First look at Guillermo del Toro’s FRANKENSTEIN starring Oscar Isaac and Jacob Elordi

Here’s a first look at the director Guillermo del Toro’S Frankenstein. Adapting was a director’s dream Mary Shelley’s classic horror story in a movie.

This is a project he’s been trying to direct for much of his career, and judging by this first image, it looks like it’s going to be a beautiful, visually stunning film.

Oscar Isaac plays Dr. Frankenstein, who tampers with the natural order by transforming dead tissue into a new being, a monster played by Giacobbe Elordi.

Vanity Fair states that “much of the film, including the laboratory scene, takes place within the remains of once-grand structures.”

Del Toro states: “Gothic romanticism was born in part from a fascination with ruins. Sometimes they are more beautiful than the complete building because it is the clash between creation and destruction.”

The story follows Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant but selfish scientist who brings a creature to life in a monstrous experiment that ultimately leads to the destruction of both the creator and his tragic creation.

Del Toro previously said of the project: “It’s a film I’ve wanted to make for 50 years since I saw the first Frankenstein. I had an epiphany, and it’s basically a film that took a lot of growth and a lot of tools that I couldn’t have done 10 years ago. Now I’m brave enough or crazy enough or something, and we’ll deal with it.

The director also explained that he was afraid of making this film: “Frankenstein for me it’s the pinnacle of everything, and part of me wants to make a version of it, part of me held back for more than 25 years before making it happen.

“I dream of being able to do the best Frankenstein never, but then if you make it, you’ve made it. Whether it’s great or not, it’s done. You can’t dream about it anymore. This is a director’s tragedy.

“You can dream about something but once you’ve achieved it, you’ve achieved it. That’s all. You got a 10 or a 6.5 but you were already at the Olympics and 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, definitely with Alley of nightmares and then with Pinocchiowe dealt with the whole father-son relationship. And Guillermo and I have both lost our fathers in the last few years.

“When you have a strong father figure, it’s an important part of our lives. This version of Frankenstein a lot follows that thematic path. So, I think this is the third film in Guillermo’s father’s trilogy. It’s emotional, and when you read the script, it’s very emotional and, obviously, very iconic.”

The film is also the protagonist My Gothic AND Christoph Waltz.
