**New York, NY** – Jacob Elordi, known for his roles in “Euphoria” and “Saltburn,” is virtually unrecognizable in Guillermo del Toro’s highly anticipated adaptation of “Frankenstein.” Elordi takes on the role of the creature, locked in a deadly conflict with his creator, Victor Frankenstein, played by Oscar Isaac.
Elordi underwent a drastic transformation, spending up to 10 hours in the makeup chair to achieve the monster’s look. The film explores the creature’s evolution, from a vulnerable being to a vengeful outcast.
Director Guillermo del Toro calls the film a layered family drama focused on forgiveness, understanding, and the importance of listening to each other. Isaac portrays Victor Frankenstein as a rock star-like figure, drawing inspiration from David Bowie and Prince.
The film is receiving major awards buzz and will have a limited theatrical release starting on October 17th, followed by its debut on Netflix on November 7th. The actors express a strong preference for audiences to experience the film in theaters, emphasizing the immersive nature of del Toro’s vision.
