New images of James McAvoy & Daniel Radcliffe from Victor Frankenstein

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

We've already seen a couple of behind-the-scenes photos of HORNS and THE WOMAN IN BLACK star Daniel Radcliffe in the role of Igor in Paul McGuigan's upcoming VICTOR FRANKENSTEIN (check those out HERE and HERE), and now Empire has landed our first look at James McAvoy as the titular scientist in two new images.

McGuigan's new take on Mary Shelley's classic tale comes from a script by CHRONICLE screenwriter Max Landis, and production on the monster movie wrapped up last month. Here's the synopsis:

James McAvoy is Victor Von Frankenstein and Daniel Radcliffe stars as Igor in a unique, never-before-seen twist on Mary Shelley’s classic 19th century novel. Told from Igor’s perspective, we see the troubled young assistant’s dark origins, his redemptive friendship with the young medical student Victor Von Frankenstein, and become eyewitnesses to the emergence of how Frankenstein became the man—and the legend—we know today.

The film also stars "Sherlock" actors Andrew Scott and Mark Gatiss, "Downton Abbey" actress Jessica Brown Findlay, and Callum Turner (QUEEN AND COUNTRY, E4's Glue), and is set to open on October 2, 2015.
