Jacob Elordi is alive! The actor will portray Frankenstein in director Guillermo del Toro’s adaptation of the classic monster tale.
Elordi is taking over the role from Andrew Garfield, who departed the Netflix project due to strike-related scheduling conflicts. He will join the previously announced ensemble of Oscar Isaac, who is portraying Victor Frankenstein, as well as Mia Goth and Christoph Waltz.
Del Toro, the Oscar-winning filmmaker of “The Shape of Water,” is writing, directing and producing “Frankenstein.” It’s based on Mary Shelley’s novel about the brilliant but egotistical scientist Victor Frankenstein, who brings a creature to life in a monstrous experiment.
“Frankenstein” continues Netflix’s partnership with del Toro, including the Academy Award-winning “Pinocchio,” the anthology series “Cabinet of Curiosities,” and the animated films “Trollhunters: Rise of the Titans” and “Trollhunters: Tales of Arcadia.”
