Coming to Netflix on November 7, Frankenstein marks Guillermo del Toro’s bold return to gothic storytelling. Written and directed by the Oscar-winning visionary, the film reimagines Mary Shelley’s timeless tale of creation, ambition, and despair.
Oscar Isaac stars as Victor Frankenstein, the gifted yet hubristic scientist whose obsession with conquering death unleashes a tragic chain of events. Jacob Elordi, Mia Goth, Felix Kammerer, Charles Dance, and Christoph Waltzcomplete the star-studded cast, promising layered performances and emotional depth.
Del Toro’s adaptation is expected to blend his signature visual artistry—lush yet macabre—with Shelley’s profound questions about humanity, identity, and the monstrous consequences of unchecked ambition.
Darkly beautiful and emotionally devastating, Frankenstein looks to be not just a retelling but a reinvention of horror’s most enduring myth. Prepare to witness the birth of the creature like never before.
(Streaming exclusively on Netflix November 7.)
