Wolfman Sighted
Written on March 12, 2008 by Niall Browne
The first pictures of Benicio Del Torro as The Wolfman are now online, and they look, well... bloody!
This is good news. When I first heard that journeyman Joe Johnston was helming the horror I was afraid that the film would be family friendly (how much alliteration can you fit in one sentence?!).
This looks like the real deal.
There isn't a great whole lot to see - just Del Torro looking haggard in tight black jeans (never a good look) with crew and Anthony Hopkins hanging around.
At least they're shooting this sucker, and the gore content makes me think this isn't going to be PG-13. I think I might just be over the (full) moon.
The Wolfman us scheduled for release on February 13 2009.

Good luck wolfman.
Love ya Niall couldn't give a crap about this film. I predict it will be a bomb. (Without question)
The first to leave a comment? And the last.........?
Wow, the anticipation for this movie is incredible!

I just don't see a Wolfman film capturing the attention of most filmgoing people these days Vic.
I'm sure there's a FEW fans of this tired old Universal pictures monster out there but they sure arnt posting here..
Even with great cast and good CGI I don't see a fanbase for this nor do I think one will be created.
At least the past wolfman films all had some kind of twist , American Werewolf in London and The Howling all took off in different directions.
Seeing a picture of Del Torro covered in blood dosnt excite me......and its title (The Wolfman) dosnt get the 12 bucks out of my wallet.
Frankly this film sounds stupid. I predict it won't break 40 mill.
.
Maybe all the Wolfman fans will reply and prove me wrong......?
I think that this film is straight(ish) a remake of The Wolfman from 1941 starring Lon Chaney.
It's a pretty cool movie- check it out and watch your expectations for this film rise!

Nothing but Average.
