Andrew Garfield fans were enraged by one small piece of information, which has since been verified. Oscar Isaac, who plays Isaac's Dr. Frankenstein, would have a go-ahead for the idea of him sharing the screen with another internet favourite, who has never been confirmed.
The rumors were first published by the entertainment website Giant Freaking Robot, which treated the information as an exclusive, citing "trusted and proven sources." The rumors took place without incident on Twitter, where people immediately jumped at the definitely appealing suggestion.
Which is the cherry on the top? This Frankenstein film is said to be directed by Guillermo del Toro, the award-winning artist who directed Pinocchio and The Shape of Water. With Oscar Isaac apparently attached, all the ingredients have apparently been gathered for a robust success.
The idea of a del Toro film on Frankenstein goes back to 2013. Since then, the Mexican director has completed four films, as well as written, developed, and worked on more than ten other projects, from television to gaming. Frankenstein is currently listed on IMDb as being in "pre-production," which does not reveal much about how long this project will last.
Yet, these are the most credible reports about this project they have ever seen, which can be good news for those who are hoping. Both Garfield and Isaac would excel in their roles as the monster and Dr. Frankenstein, so all we can do now is cross our fingers for everything to become official.
