Del Toro Ready for “Frankenstein”

Director Guillermo Del Toro is prepping a version of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. Telling MTV News that he’s “always been” interested in directing a version of Frankenstein, Del Toro said he’s hard at work in pre-production.

From the article:

“I started doing some notes before the strike,” he revealed. “[During the strike] I can only draw now.” (Watch Del Toro discuss “Frankenstein” after the jump.)

Known for his adult fairy tales like “Pan’s Labyrinth,” Del Toro insists he has a “definitive take” on the character.

“The only way to do the Shelley novel is to actually do a four-hour miniseries,” he said. “But I think there permutations in which you can tell the myth in a different way.”
