‘Frankenstein’ First Look: Oscar Isaac Is Guillermo del Toro’s Mad Scientist as Netflix Confirms November Release

by

Lo and behold! Netflix has unveiled a sneak peek of Guillermo del Toro’s “Frankenstein” adaptation, set to hit screens in November.

At a recent Netflix event, Guillermo del Toro unveiled some exclusive clips featuring Oscar Isaac as the main character scientist, who’s a bit mad. In one scene, he’s seen gripping a puzzling vial. Del Toro displayed these scenes in his famous LA “Bleak House,” showcasing a room reminiscent of Frankenstein during his presentation.

For half a century, this movie has lingered in my thoughts from childhood; I’ve endeavored to bring it to life for nearly a quarter-century. Some might say I’m excessively passionate about ‘Frankenstein,’ and they would not be wrong. As you glance around the room filled with Frankenstein memorabilia, you can see how deeply this character has intertwined itself with me. It’s as if it’s chronicled my life story. This sneak peek into ‘Frankenstein’ is a glimpse of my personal journey.

The footage put together by the director of “Pan’s Labyrinth,” depicts the character of Victor Frankenstein played by Isaac, squaring off against Mia Goth, who portrays an affluent aristocrat. Additionally, it offers a fleeting peek at Jacob Elordi as the monster created by Frankenstein, standing over Isaac’s bed with long black hair, patched gray skin, and a hint of red in his eyes.
