More on Frankenstein

The trailer for Guillermo del Toro’s ‘Frankenstein’ was surprisingly amazing, and it’s really got me excited for the movie!

Early reviews for Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein are varied, but most critics agree that Jacob Elordi is captivating as the Creature. The Euphoria star plays the role alongside Oscar Isaac’s Victor Frankenstein – a part originally intended for Andrew Garfield – and delivers a truly memorable performance.

Elordi delivers a compelling performance, portraying the monster with both strength and sadness, and making his anger feel rooted in genuine human sorrow. He was actually motivated to take on the role by a critical comment early in his career, and it’s evident he wanted to challenge himself and demonstrate his abilities to viewers.

Some were surprised by Jacob Elordi’s casting, but his striking presence and ability to portray inner sadness actually make him ideal for Guillermo del Toro’s dark and emotional take on the classic story. With its stunning visuals and del Toro’s signature blend of romance and horror, the new Frankenstein film is already generating a lot of buzz and could become the most memorable version of the story for today’s audiences. And for those captivated by the look of the Creature, this movie is likely to become a new favorite.
