From the brilliantly twisted mind of Guillermo del Toro comes a new take on the classic tale of Frankenstein by Mary Shelley.

The news came via Collider that del Toro has confirmed the casting news, making a statement to the audience at the 10th-anniversary screening of Pacific Rim. “I’m doing Frankenstein.

I had an epiphany, and it’s basically a movie that required a lot of growth and a lot of tools that I couldn’t have done 10 years ago.
