Del Toro To Play Wolf Man

Traffic Oscar-winner Benicio Del Toro is set to play a classic movie monster in the big screen remake of The Wolf Man. The Sin City actor will star in and co-produce the new version of the horror film. Like the original film, which starred Lon Chaney Jr., the remake will be set in Victorian England. Se7en writer Andrew Kevin Walker has started working on the script for the film. Shooting is scheduled to begin early next year, once Del Toro completes work on the Che Guevara biopic Guerrilla. The film will be released in 2008.

Anybody think this is cool? Del Toro is a fantastic actor and will be great in the role.

[Double-Oh Agent]

Yeah, he should be pretty good. I'm sure he'll be interesting anyway.

I wonder if he'll give a bride a nice honeymoooooooon?

Good to see a remake taking place in the same era as the original.

[Agent 76]

He has the face for it.

[Mr. Somerset]

I think that's great. I believe he is a fan of those classic monster films as well.

[Qwerty]

Sounds very cool.

Too bad they're not remaking "The Werewolf of London," that way there would be a part for a rival werewolf that maybe Timothy Dalton could play. Then again they could just flesh out the Bela the Gypsy role.

This movie took forever to make!

This thread started up some four years ago, so...

[O.H.M.S.S.]

Sounds promising. When are they finally going to finish this?

[Mr Teddy Bear]

It's out in a month or two and you can find the trailer online.
