The world\u2019s next hot monster<\/a> is here. At its big Tudum event, Netflix released the first teaser trailer for Guillermo del Toro\u2019s latest film, Frankenstein. In it, audiences finally catch a glimpse<\/a> of Jacob Elordi as Frankenstein\u2019s monster. A monster that is scary, but in a way that makes death seem okay<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Thankfully, that\u2019s juxtaposed with the type of gore and scope one expects from Del Toro. The Oscar-winning director of The Shape of Water, Pan\u2019s Labyrinth, Pacific Rim, Hellboy<\/a> and others has been wanting to make his version of the classic Mary Shelley story for years now, and with the help of Oscar Isaac, Christoph Waltz, and Mia Goth, he\u2019s done just that. Here\u2019s the first trailer for Frankenstein.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Though Frankenstein was produced and will live on Netflix, we certainly hope audiences have a chance to see it on a big screen. Guillermo del Toro is one of those filmmakers whose work begs to be seen in a theater, and Frankenstein looks to fit the bill once again. It\u2019s all there in the trailer\u2014incredible sets, beautiful visual effects, stunning costumes, gruesome makeup, you name it.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re also very curious about where Frankenstein is going to fit into the awards cycle at the end of this year. With a cast and crew like this, you\u2019d imagine Netflix is expecting Frankenstein to be a contender for all the major awards. And, frankly, fans like you and I expect the movie to be good enough to do so. However, a project like this, one that seems so incredible on paper, often doesn\u2019t meet those expectations. How could it? This is the ultimate monster story from the ultimate monster filmmaker! After seeing this trailer, though, we think maybe this will live up to its potential<\/p>\n

Frankenstein, directed by Guillermo del Toro and starring Jacob Elordi, Oscar Isaac, Mia Goth, and Christoph Waltz, comes to Netflix in November.<\/p>\n
