Goodbye Andrew Garfield, hello Jacob Elordi. The news just dropped, it's the actor from Euphoria who will portray the creature of doctor Frankenstein in Guillermo del Toro's new production.

He is everywhere. After playing remarkable roles in Priscilla and Saltburn recently, Jacob Elordi will soon be back on your screens as the most famous of monsters in Frankenstein, by Guillermo del Toro.


An agenda problem

If, at first, it was The amazing Spiderman, namely Andrew Garfield, who was supposed to play this iconic character from literary history, it is finally Jacob Elordi who will be in the cast of the next film by the director of The Shape of Water.

In the film, which is expected to be released directly on Netflix next year, he will be surrounded by Oscar Isaac (Dr. Frankenstein himself), Mia Goth, Lars Mikkelsen, and Felix Kammerer (seen in All Quiet on the Western Front).

It's a project that the director has nurtured for several years, with the desire to remain faithful to the original themes of Mary Shelley's novel, while adding a gothic atmosphere, which is quite common in his works.

But be careful, it's a little challenge that awaits Guillermo del Toro, because this story has already been the subject of a number of film adaptations. But knowing the director's slightly offbeat universe, we don't worry too much. Anyway, we can't wait to fantasize about a monster with complete impunity.
