Frankenstein
One of del Toro’s finest, this is epic-scale storytelling of uncommon beauty, feeling and artistry. ” David Rooney The Hollywood Reporter
From visionary director Guillermo del Toro comes Frankenstein, a long-awaited reimagining of Mary Shelley’s timeless classic. This gothic tale follows Oscar Isaac (Dune) as Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant but tormented scientist, and Jacob Elordi (Saltburn) as the Creature—brought to life in a tragic story of obsession, loss, and humanity. Joining them is Mia Goth (Pearl) as Elizabeth Lavenza, alongside Christoph Waltz and Charles Dance, in a film that balances haunting spectacle with raw emotion.
Premiering to acclaim at the Venice Film Festival, where it received a 13-minute standing ovation, Frankenstein is already hailed as one of del Toro’s most personal works. With stunning practical effects, a haunting score by Alexandre Desplat, and del Toro’s signature blend of dark fantasy and compassion, this adaptation promises to be a modern gothic masterpiece.
