Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein Set for November Netflix Release
Guillermo del Toro is directing a new adaptation of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, set for release in 2025 on Netflix, which he describes as an emotional story rather than a horror film. The movie explores themes of fatherhood and creation, focusing on the tragic relationship between Victor Frankenstein and his Monster, set against a stark Arctic backdrop. Oscar Isaac stars as Victor Frankenstein, with Jacob Elordi cast as the Monster, whose full reveal remains deliberately obscured. Del Toro's approach draws from the gothic and sympathetic portrayal of monsters seen in his previous works, emphasizing emotional depth over traditional horror elements. The film incorporates historical context from the original novel, including its late Enlightenment setting, and nods to earlier adaptations, such as Universal Pictures' 1931 film. While no full trailer has been released yet, Netflix is expected to debut it at their Tudum 2025 event.
