The Wolfman
What's the first thing I did when Universal told us that the official trailer for The Wolfman would arrive tomorrow? Switch the film's theatrical release from February 13, 2009 to February 12, 2010. Yes, this film is long overdue, but maybe, just maybe, it will be worth the wait.
The Wolfman Stills
Inspired by the classic Universal film that launched a legacy of horror, The Wolfman brings the myth of a cursed man back to its iconic origins. Oscar® winner Benicio Del Toro stars as Lawrence Talbot, a haunted nobleman lured back to his family estate after his brother vanishes. Reunited with his estranged father (Oscar® winner Anthony Hopkins), Talbot sets out to find his brother...and discovers a horrifying destiny for himself. Joe Johnston directs The Wolfman, and six-time Oscar®-winning special effects artist Rick Baker brings his design and makeup talents to transform Del Toro into the fearsome title character.
To get us prepped for the trailer tomorrow, Universal has sent over some stills. Some - I mean a crapload.
