'''''Frankenstein''''' is a 2025 American [[Gothic film|Gothic]]<!-- Gothic is always capitalized --> [[Science fiction film|science fiction]] [[Drama (film and television)|drama film]] written, produced, and directed by [[Guillermo del Toro]], based on [[Frankenstein|the 1818 novel]] by [[Mary Shelley]]. The film stars [[Oscar Isaac]] as [[Victor Frankenstein]] and [[Jacob Elordi]] as [[Frankenstein's monster|the Creature]], with [[Mia Goth]] and [[Christoph Waltz]] in supporting roles. The story follows the life of Frankenstein, an egotistical scientist whose experiment in creating new life results in dangerous consequences.

Del Toro had long imagined a faithful ''Frankenstein'' film as a "dream project". This was initially in development for [[Universal Pictures]], with del Toro casting frequent collaborator [[Doug Jones (actor)|Doug Jones]] as the Creature, and [[Bernie Wrightson]] being considered for the monster's design. However, Universal suspended the project in relation to its planned ''[[Universal Monsters#Cancelled and repurposed projects|Dark Universe]]'' franchise. [[Netflix]] revived the project in 2023, with Elordi instead portraying the Creature. Filming took place from February to September 2024. Although Wrightson died in 2017, his illustrated compilation ''[[Bernie Wrightson's Frankenstein]]'' was a key inspiration for the film's look.

''Frankenstein'' premiered at the [[82nd Venice International Film Festival]] on August 30, 2025. It had a [[limited theatrical release]] in the United States from October 17 and was globally released on November 7 on [[Netflix]]. The film received generally positive reviews from critics. Both the [[National Board of Review]] and the [[American Film Institute]] named it as one of the top ten films of 2025.<ref name="NBR">{{cite web|url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/one-battle-after-another-best-film-national-board-review-1236441439/|title=National Board of Review Names 'One Battle After Another' as Best Film of 2025|website=[[The Hollywood Reporter]]|first=Hilary|last=Lewis|date=December 3, 2025|accessdate=December 3, 2025}}</ref><ref name="AFI">{{Cite web |title=AFI Awards Movie Top 10: 'Sinners', 'Avatar: Fire And Ash', 'Jay Kelly' Among Honorees |url=https://deadline.com/2025/12/afi-awards-2025-top-movies-list-1236636128/ |last=Hammond |first=Pete |date=2025-12-04 |access-date=2025-12-04 |website=[[Deadline Hollywood]]}}</ref> It received five nominations at the [[83rd Golden Globe Awards]], including [[Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture – Drama|Best Motion Picture – Drama]], and nine nominations at the [[98th Academy Awards]], including [[Academy Award for Best Picture|Best Picture]], [[Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay|Best Adapted Screenplay]] and [[Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor|Best Supporting Actor]] (Elordi).

==Plot==
<!-- Per [[MOS:FILMPLOT]], plot summaries for feature films should be between 400 to 700 words. -->
===Prelude===
In 1857, ''Horisont'', a [[Royal Danish Navy]] ship sailing for the [[North Pole]], becomes trapped in ice. Alerted to an explosion in the distance, Captain Anderson and his men discover a gravely injured Victor Frankenstein. Upon bringing him aboard, the crew is attacked by a humanoid creature who demands Victor's surrender. Anderson uses a [[blunderbuss]] to sink the Creature into the water. Victor explains that he created the Creature and recounts the events leading to its creation.

===Part I: Victor's Tale===
Victor's mother dies giving birth to his younger brother, William, who becomes the favorite of their renowned, aristocratic father. Grieving his mother and resenting his abusive father, Victor becomes a brilliant, arrogant surgeon obsessed with "curing" death through science. He is expelled from the [[Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh]] for reanimating corpses, which a disciplinary tribunal denounces as [[sacrilege]].

Arms merchant Henrich Harlander, impressed by his presentation, offers Victor unlimited funding and an isolated tower to continue his experiments under an unnamed condition. Enlisting William's assistance in building his laboratory, Victor becomes smitten with Elizabeth, Harlander's niece and William's fiancée, who declines his advances.

When an impatient Harlander demands results within a week, Victor fashions body parts from criminals and soldiers killed in the ongoing [[Crimean War]] into a body to reanimate. Harlander reveals he is dying of [[syphilis]] and unveils his single condition – he wants his brain transplanted into the body of the Creature. When Victor refuses, Harlander attempts to sabotage the experiment, but falls to his death. Lightning strikes the Creature as planned, but it fails to reanimate.

The following morning, Victor finds the Creature alive. He marvels at its immense strength and ability to rapidly heal wounds, but can only teach it to speak one word: "Victor". Frustrated by his lack of intellectual growth, Victor begins to imitate his father's cruel discipline and becomes afraid of the Creature's physical strength. Visiting with William, Elizabeth questions Victor's treatment of the Creature and bonds with him, teaching him to speak her name. When William finds Harlander's body, Victor dishonestly claims the Creature killed him in a fit of rage. After sending them away, Victor sets his lab ablaze, with the Creature inside. Hearing the Creature call his name, Victor remorsefully attempts to reenter the tower, but it explodes, severing his leg.

In the present, the Creature boards the ship, confronts the captain, and shares his own story.

===Part II: The Creature's Tale===
The Creature escapes the explosion and takes shelter in the mill gears of a family's farm. Over the next year, he secretly helps the family, providing them with large supplies of firewood and building a pen for their sheep. They thank their unseen benefactor as the "Spirit of the Forest."

When the rest of the family leaves for the mountains to hunt wolves, the Creature befriends their blind patriarch, who teaches him to read and speak fluently. The Creature journeys to the ruins of the laboratory, where he discovers the truth about his creation and the address to Victor's estate. He returns to the farm to find the blind man being attacked by wolves, which the Creature fights off before comforting his dying friend. The family returns and, mistakenly believing the Creature killed the blind man, shoots him.

After reviving, the Creature realizes he [[Immortality|cannot die]] and will spend eternity alone. He confronts Victor during William and Elizabeth's wedding, demanding the creation of a [[Bride of Frankenstein (character)|companion]]. Victor, fearing the possibility of the Creature reproducing, adamantly refuses. The Creature attacks him. Hearing the commotion, Elizabeth rushes in and embraces the creature. While attempting to shoot the Creature, Victor shoots Elizabeth instead. William is wounded while attempting to rush the Creature; before dying, he calls Victor a "monster". The Creature carries Elizabeth to a cave and comforts her as she dies. Victor pursues the Creature to the [[Arctic]], where the Creature attempts to destroy himself with a stick of dynamite but fails.

A remorseful Victor and the Creature reconcile, addressing each other as "father" and "son", before Victor succumbs to his injuries. The Creature frees the ship from the ice. Anderson decides to abandon his pursuit and sail back home. Alone, the Creature reaches out to embrace the sunlight as Victor once taught him.

In 2007, [[Guillermo del Toro]] said that a project that he "would kill to make" would be a faithful "[[Miltonian]] tragedy" version of [[Mary Shelley]]'s 1818 novel ''[[Frankenstein]]'', citing [[Frank Darabont]]'s "pretty much perfect" script for [[Kenneth Branagh]]'s 1994 film ''[[Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (film)|Mary Shelley's Frankenstein]]''.<ref>{{cite web |last=Sampson |first=Mike |title=Guillermo talks! |website=[[JoBlo.com]] |date=October 26, 2007 |url=https://joblo.com/guillermo-talks |access-date=October 27, 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140203120025/http://www.joblo.com/guillermo-talks |archive-date=February 3, 2014 |url-status=dead}}</ref> In January 2008, he revealed that he was then in the process of crafting drawings that he hoped to use as a basis for the world of the film, and that, additionally, he had begun taking script notes but stopped once the [[2007–08 Writers Guild of America strike|WGA strike]] occurred.<ref>{{cite web|last=Adler|first=Shawn|url=http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2008/01/02/guillermo-del-toro-ready-to-unleash-frankensteins-monster/|title=Guillermo Del Toro Ready To Unleash Frankenstein's Monster|website=[[MTV Movies Blog]]|date=January 1, 2008|access-date=March 3, 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150918172512/http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2008/01/02/guillermo-del-toro-ready-to-unleash-frankensteins-monster/|archive-date=September 18, 2015}}</ref> The following month, del Toro said of his vision:

{{blockquote|text=What I'm trying to do is take the myth and do something with it, but combining elements of ''[[Frankenstein (1931 film)|Frankenstein]]'' and ''[[Bride of Frankenstein]]'' without making it just a classical myth of the monster.

[[Boris Karloff]] has the tragedy element nailed down but there are so many versions, including that great screenplay by Frank Darabont that was ultimately not really filmed.<ref>{{cite magazine |last=Hewitt |first=Chris |title= Guillermo Del Toro Talks The Hobbit |magazine=[[Empire (magazine)|Empire]] |date= February 8, 2008 |url=https://www.empireonline.com/interviews/Interview.asp?IID=740&CurrentPage=2 |access-date=February 8, 2008 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111123174609/http://www.empireonline.com/interviews/Interview.asp?IID=740&CurrentPage=2 |archive-date= November 23, 2011}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Hamman|first=Cody|url=https://www.joblo.com/everything-we-know-about-guillermo-del-toros-frankenstein/|title=Everything We Know About Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein (Behind the scenes image!)|website=[[JoBlo.com]]|date=November 21, 2024|access-date=February 11, 2025}}</ref>}}

===Influences===
Del Toro said of his inspiration for making the movie: "It was a religion for me.

And then when I saw Boris Karloff on the screen, I understood what a saint or a [[Messiah in Christianity|messiah]] looked like.

===Critical response===
[[File:JacobElordi-TIFF2025-01 (cropped).png|thumb|219x219px|Jacob Elordi has garnered critical praise for his performance as the Creature, and earned a nomination for the [[Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor]].]]

{{MC film|78|58|ref=y|access-date=December 6, 2025}} The film has been described as Gothic romanticism, in the vein of del Toro's own ''[[Crimson Peak]]'' (2015) or such films as [[Neil Jordan]]'s ''[[Interview with the Vampire (film)|Interview with the Vampire]]'' (1994) and [[Francis Ford Coppola]]'s ''[[Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992 film)|Bram Stoker's Dracula]]'' (1992).<ref name="graham">{{cite magazine |url=https://www.empireonline.com/movies/reviews/frankenstein-2025/ |title=Frankenstein (2025) Review |magazine=[[Empire (magazine)|Empire]] |first=Jamie |last=Graham |date=14 October 2025 |access-date=24 October 2025}}</ref>

Alissa Wilkinson of ''[[The New York Times]]'', selecting the film as a Critic's Pick, argues that del Toro's version wholeheartedly embraces the novel's profound debt to ''[[Paradise Lost]]'' while imprinting it with his signature style, transforming Shelley's literary skeleton into a distinctly del Toro tale of monstrous fathers and abandoned sons that remains faithful to the core pathos of the original text.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/16/movies/frankenstein-review.html|title='Frankenstein' Review: Guillermo del Toro's Creature Rises|date=16 October 2025|access-date=22 November 2025|website=[[The New York Times]]|last=Wilkinson|first=Alissa}}</ref> This balance between fidelity and personal vision is echoed by ''[[The Hollywood Reporter]]''{{'}}s David Rooney, who describes the film as a visually sumptuous retelling that transcends horror for grand Romantic tragedy, suggesting it hews closely to the novel's tragic spirit while achieving a new cinematic scale.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-reviews/frankenstein-review-oscar-isaac-jacob-elordi-netflix-1236351926/|title='Frankenstein' Review: Guillermo del Toro Transcends Horror in Emotionally Charged Take on Mary Shelley Led by Oscar Isaac and Jacob Elordi|date=30 August 2025|access-date=22 November 2025|website=[[The Hollywood Reporter]]|last=Rooney|first=David}}</ref> ''[[Empire (magazine)|Empire]]''{{'}}s Jamie Graham awards the film four stars out of five, calling it "an unusually faithful rendition of Mary Shelley's novel" that also functions as a boldly personal Gothic romance, stitching together Shelley's themes with del Toro's signature fairy-tale and body-horror sensibilities into a sumptuous whole.<ref name="graham"/> In a full-throated rave, Glenn Kenny of ''[[RogerEbert.com]]'' offers a perfect score, vigorously defending the adaptation's integrity, crediting del Toro for forging something nearly new from the familiar source material by keeping "philosophically faithful to Mary Shelley's novel" even as he smartly transposes its core to a more fantastical [[Victorian era|Victorian]] setting, thereby expanding the humanity found in the classic story.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/frankenstein-film-review-2025|title=Frankenstein|date=7 November 2025|access-date=22 November 2025|website=[[RogerEbert.com]]|last=Kenny|first=Glenn}}</ref>

A more cautious perspective comes from ''[[The Guardian]]''{{'}}s Peter Bradshaw, who, while granting the film three stars out of five and admiring its narrative shift to the Creature's perspective, contends that its "luxurious, cod-period reverence" for a Victorian aesthetic ultimately sanitizes the tale's raw, philosophical horror, steering clear of the transgressive energy he finds in other interpretations.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/film/2025/aug/30/frankenstein-review-guillermo-del-toro-oscar-isaac-jacob-elordi|title=Frankenstein review – Guillermo del Toro reanimates a classic as a monstrously beautiful melodrama|date=30 August 2025|access-date=22 November 2025|website=[[The Guardian]]|last=Bradshaw|first=Peter}}</ref> This critique is sharpened by Ava Elizabeth Jenkins at ''[[The Daily Tar Heel]]'', who, in a mixed assessment, argues that specific character alterations from Shelley's blueprint, such as aging up Victor Frankenstein and reconfiguring Elizabeth's role, ultimately "undermined the source material's emotional weight," rendering key moments from the novel feeling unearned in what she still calls a "beautifully horrific interpretation."<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.dailytarheel.com/article/lifestyle-frankenstein-review-2025-20251103|title=Review: Guillermo del Toro's 'Frankenstein' makes a monster of its source material|date=4 November 2025|access-date=22 November 2025|website=[[The Daily Tar Heel]]|last=Jenkins|first=Ava Elizabeth}}</ref> Similarly, Peter Debruge of ''[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]]'' notes that while del Toro's vision "hews closer to Mary Shelley's intentions" than most prior film adaptations, particularly in its empathetic exploration of creation and purpose, it ultimately buckles under its own weight, its structural choices and epic runtime diluting the novel's concentrated philosophical power.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://variety.com/2025/film/reviews/frankenstein-review-guillermo-del-toro-1236502741/|title='Frankenstein' Review: Guillermo del Toro's Monster Ambitions|date=30 August 2025|access-date=13 December 2025|website=[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]]}}</ref> The consensus frames del Toro's Frankenstein as a sweeping Gothic romance that prioritizes the novel's spiritual core over literal fidelity.
