First off if you haven't seen 'The Wolf Man 1941' DO IT. Classic film <3

 

But this upcoming reinvention is one I'm actually excited about. I think it's gonna be excellent. Great cast too, Anthony Hopkins, Benicio Del Toro, Hugo Weaving and Emily Blunt.

 

Here is a trailer. Not the best quality but good enough for a sneak peek. Embedding disabled so just click the video. :P

 

 

This will probably/hopefully make Emily the huge star she should be.

 

Plot:

Lawrence Talbot, a haunted nobleman, is lured back to his family estate after his brother vanishes. Reunited with his estranged father, Talbot sets out to find his brother... and discovers a horrifying destiny for himself. Talbot's childhood ended the night his mother died. After he left the sleepy Victorian hamlet of Blackmoor, he spent decades recovering and trying to forget. But when his brother's fiancée, Gwen Conliffe, tracks him down to help find her missing love, Talbot returns home to join the search. He learns that something with brute strength and insatiable bloodlust has been killing the villagers, and that a suspicious Scotland Yard inspector named Aberline has come to investigate.

 

 

There was a kind of modern-day reinvention of the werewolf myth with the film "Wolf" with Jack Nicholson....

 

I'm always suspicious of remakes tbh, especially when you talk about something that's considered a Horror Classic.... This could be good, but I've still yet to see as convincing a human/wolf turning as "American Werewolf in London".. And that film is almost 30 years old and didn't use CGI....
