Oscar Isaac and Mia Goth are bringing new life to a literary classic. The two actors recently discussed their involvement in Guillermo del Toro’s much-anticipated adaptation of Frankenstein, a project that has sparked major buzz among fans of horror, gothic romance, and prestige cinema.
In an interview, Oscar Isaac described the film as “emotionally intense and deeply philosophical,” teasing a version of Frankenstein that leans into questions of identity, creation, and what it truly means to be human. Isaac will reportedly portray Dr. Victor Frankenstein—a role he says demands both intellect and vulnerability.
Mia Goth, known for her work in psychological horror (Pearl, Infinity Pool), praised del Toro’s direction and the film’s emotional core. She’s rumored to be playing a version of the Bride or a newly reimagined female character central to the monster’s arc. “This isn’t just a horror story,” Goth said. “It’s a tragic love story wrapped in madness.”

Director Guillermo del Toro, who previously won the Oscar for The Shape of Water, is said to be bringing his signature visual flair and compassion to the tale. Sources close to the production say the movie will blend classic gothic horror with modern themes, including bioethics and the loneliness of creation—elements del Toro has long explored in his storytelling.
Set against the backdrop of a decaying 19th-century Europe, the adaptation is expected to have lavish set design and emotionally charged performances. Fans are particularly excited about the pairing of Isaac’s brooding gravitas with Goth’s magnetic intensity, and how the duo will explore their characters' moral descent and emotional unraveling.
As filming progresses, anticipation continues to build, with critics already predicting the film could become a future awards contender. With del Toro, Isaac, and Goth aligned on such an iconic story, this Frankenstein could breathe new life into the timeless monster mythos.
