Netflix has shared more images from Guillermo del Toro‘s hotly anticipated Frankenstein.
The film is based on Mary Shelley’s classic tale of a brilliant but egotistical scientist who brings a creature to life in a monstrous experiment that ultimately leads to the undoing of both the creator and his tragic creation.
New photos released Tuesday show Jacob Elordi in character as the famed monster, as well as stars Mia Goth (Elizabeth Lavenza) and Oscar Isaac (Victor Frankenstein) on set.
The movie, produced by del Toro and also starring Felix Kammerer, David Bradley, Lars Mikkelsen, Christian Convery, with Charles Dance, and Christoph Waltz, is set to premiere at this year’s Venice Film Festival, followed by a global release on Netflix in November.
Del Toro has a long history of turning monsters into prestige fair. 2006’s Pan’s Labyrinth earned three Oscars, while 2017’s The Shape of Water was an awards juggernaut, taking home four Academy Awards, including best picture and best director. With Frankenstein, he continues a relationship with Netflix that includes Pinocchio, which landed a best animated feature Oscar in 2023.
