Del Toro makes a great human monster. Look at him in Sin City. He plays a character that's such a powder keg that lycanthropy would only be redundant. Combine that with sensitive, expressive features much like those of Lon Chaney Jr. Both of them can express more with the lines in their face than other actors can with their whole bodies available. The Wolfman was also made over 60 years ago and has not had a direct remake in spite of being a member of the Universal Monster canon. Dracula has been reinterpreted, Frankenstein has been reinterpreted, but Larry Talbot remains the Larry Talbot of Wolfman, Frankenstein meets the Wolfman and the House of movies. The remake will remind people of his place in monster canon.

"The Wolfman" remake has a director
Romanek Helming The Wolfman
Source: The Hollywood Reporter February 8, 2007 Director Mark Romanek (One Hour Photo) is set to helm The Wolfman, says The Hollywood Reporter. Scott Stuber and Mary Parent are producing the remake of the classic Universal Studios monster, which has Benicio Del Toro attached to star. Del Toro also is on board as a producer with Rick Yorn. The movie will hew to the period pedigree of the 1941 original, in which a man returns from the U.S. to his ancestral home in Victorian-era Great Britain, gets bitten by a werewolf and begins a hairy moonlight existence. Andrew Kevin Walker wrote the screenplay. A fall start is being planned.

"Wolf" is first off, not a horror movie. Second of all, it has a pretty positive perspective on lycanthropy. The Wolfman is the story of a person tormented by the condition. It does not advocate letting your freak flag fly and enjoying a life of lupine decadence with Michelle Pfeiffer. Third, this is the remake of a Universal classic. If treated with reverence, it will be great. Remember that Carpenter's the Thing is a remake and that modern psychology, acting techniques and effects have something to contribute sometimes. Remakes sometimes remind people of the eternal quality of the original, or sometimes elaborate and enhance. This is not going to be a The Hitcher kind of remake, but maybe a The Fly kind of remake.

Well, I have mixed feelings about this one.
The original is one of my favorite werewolf films. I am just tired of all the remakes, and keep hoping to see more original and quality horror films. But, Del Toro is one of my favorite actors, and this does have the potential to be excellent.

 so this is how he looks attacking make-up effects whiz, Rick Baker, in a classic Wolf-Man pose WITHOUT ANY MAKE-UP:eek: With a script by Andrew Kevin Walker (Se7en, Sleepy Hollow) Rick Baker's make-up and Benicio's amazing, snarling face - I'm actually really looking forward to this one. Can't wait to see Benicio's sliver tipped pimp-cane! If done right, this could totally become a modern classic. I'm keeping my fingers crossed and sending them nothing but positive thoughts.
