Benicio del Toro is set to transform himself into the infamous Wolfman, the movie which was originally made in 1941 is directed bye Joe Johnston, better known for directing Jumanji, The Rocketeer and Jurassic Park 3... The movie is set for release on April 3 2009 and it stars Benicio as Lawrence Talbot, the man who si bitten by a werewolf who later on turns out to be the wolfman of course, Anthony Hopkins as Sir John Talbot, Lawrence's Father, Emily Blunt, as the woman Lawrence falls in love with and Hugo Weaving (Mr. Anderson from the Matrix) as the detective chasing after the Wolfman.
Rick Baker, the famous make up artist, pursued the film as soon as he knew they were remaking it, since he wanted to be the one who transforms Del Toro into wolfman, in his own words he said 'Benicio is already the wolfman, you just need to add some extra hair and bigger teeth and thats it'... some of you might not know who Rick Baker is, but he has won 6 academy awards for best makeup and he is the mastermind behind great character movies such as Star Wars, King Kong, An American Werewolf in London, Harry and the Hendersons, Thriller, Planet of the Apes and Men in Black... just to name a few of his hits...
Sounds like a really interesting movie and plot, lets just hope that the director does a good job with it, I mean, the movies he has under his belt are not quite the best, of course he has the added bonus that Benicio is playing the part, which will probably be a great acting performance...
anyways I leave you with some teaser pictures and a still shot from the upcoming 2009 film:
saluuuuu
