First-look photos of Jacob Elordi<\/a>‘s transformation into Frankenstein’s monster have arrived \u2014 and are appropriately unsettling.

It\u2019s like, very few words. Very few things I have to say, and he does it… We recast, and we had nine\u00a0weeks. You can\u2019t be under more pressure than that.”\n<\/p>\n The Netflix movie also stars Oscar Isaac<\/a> as the titular Victor Frankenstein, the arrogant, ethically-ambiguous scientist who brings a creature (Elordi) to life in a monstrous experiment that ultimately leads to the undoing of both the creator and his tragic creation.\n<\/p>\n Christoph Waltz as Harlander in Guillermo del Toro’s ‘Frankenstein’.<\/p>\n Ken Woroner\/Netflix<\/p>\n Want more movie news?
