What a treat! Nothing like jumping on the computer and finding a link to the first ever photo of Benicio Del Toro as the mother f-cking Wolfman! Read on to see how he'll look without a clean shave in Universal's remake hitting theaters February 13, 2009 and leave some feedback so we can see what you think!
Head to EW for an interview. Post your thoughts below!
It looks pretty good, but personally, I was hoping for more of a wolf look, this one seems like more of a throw back to the old school Wolfman. I'm not sayin this is going to make the movie bad, I'm still lookin forward to it, just a tad disappointed in the look.
Ok, since either the second image was added after my first post, or my browser is stupid and didn't load it, the second picture does look a whole lot better, but still, not what I was expecting.
When I was a kid I was torn, Frankenstein, or the Wolf Man? Well, lets' put it this way> Rain or shine, I am gonna see this in theatres no matter what. This is a story that needed an update (or reboot if you prefer), not Halloween etc...
Keep in mind, this is the Wolf Man. Key word, MAN. The fact that he is still somewhat human tells me that they are keeping with the old school look of the character that Lon Chaney Jr. made famous.
This is REALLY exciting. Can't wait.
Check out the interview with Rick Baker also. Good stuff.
I am even more excited for this now. Rick Baker knows how to make a proper werewolf. I hope the transformation is as good as AWIL.
I pretty much overlooked this movie completely being that it sounded boring -- but after these photos and the bloody one of him on the floor from last week I think it has potential.
The lower jaw looks funny to me...like it sticks out too far compared to the upper. BUT, I think the overall look is awesome and can't wait to see him in action!
Absolutely wonderful. Classy. Pays homage to the original make-up while taking on a life of its own. Let's just hope Director Johnston doesn't fuck it up.
That is awesome. Stoked to see this. I'm so glad they are keeping the look pretty close to Lon Chaney Jr. It reminds me of a cross between the original and Oliver Reed in "Curse of the Werewolf" from Hammer films.
I really REALLY like the look. If the keep the old gothic look. (Kinda like Sin City style with a little bit of color) I think this film will be AMAZING!
I'm glad they went for WOLF MAN with this one, and not WOLF ON TWO LEGS. It looks like the Classic Wolf Man, just as it should, but looks totally modernized and much more realistic. I'm very glad that he retains the iconic look that sets him apart from all the other werewolves today.
Very cool, I'm glad they stuck with more of the classic look rather than going for the full CGI werewolf. This reminds me though, where the hell is Dog Soldiers 2?
I'm glad they've paid homage to the original and gone for a true half-man look,they've even gone back to the undershot jaw effect-great.I for one got sick of seeing werewolves who just looked like giant wolfs running round upright on their hindlegs.
Del Toro even has a slight look of Chaney Jnr.This film has been set in Victorian England giving it a gothic period drama flavour.I honestly think it's going to be refreshingly great.
Holy crap, that looks badass! I love how, even though this wolfman looks like the classic, which was like a furry faced man with sharp teeth, the face now looks, at the very least, more wolf-like. How the nose is done and how the fur is around his face, it almost give the impression of a snout. But I agree with the eyes. He should've had wicked looking yellow contacts with small pupils. He would've looked freaky like that!
WOW...the pictures of Wolfman look very cool. Strong links to the way Chaney Jr looks. I just hope they make this wolfman the ultimate evil, ferocious killing creature. This film sounds like its gonna be a blast!!!!
