Two years ago, Universal announced the beginning of the construction of a cinematic universe, the main characters of which will be Frankenstein, Dracula, Invisible Man, Mummy and other characters of the classic horror films of this Hollywood. The group of script writers under the leadership of Alex Kurtzman and Chris Morgan managed to quickly draw up a plan for the development of the franchise, after which the studio bosses were able to begin searching for performers of key roles.
The Universal leadership has not yet announced whether it plans to include the “Dracula” in the film series, and therefore there is a possibility that the restart of the new universe will begin with “Mummy.” The main roles in the blockbuster were performed by Tom Cruise and Russell Crowe, as well as the rising stars of Hollywood – Annabelle Wallis and Sofia Boutella. In February of this year, it became known that the cast of the franchise was supplemented by another big name – the creation of the image of the “Invisible Man” was entrusted to Johnny Depp.
Hollywood bosses did not even think to stop at what was achieved but continued to negotiate with the popular actors. In the image of the bride of Frankenstein, they want to see Angelina Jolie, and they are ready to give the lead role in the new version of the “Creation from the Black Lagoon” to Scarlett Johansson. According to Deadline, the creators of the universe of monsters also laid eyes on Dwayne Johnson. In the topic below, you will find information about the movie “Wolf Man” with Dwayne in the title role and also the answer to the question: “When is The Wolf Man movie release date 2018?”
Production
It is rumored that one of the most popular actors of the present time is offered a title role in the upcoming restart of the “Wolf Man.” As early as November 2014, Aaron Guzikowski was appointed as film screenwriter, but since that time the studio changed the date of its release twice. The last time it was discussed that the world premiere of the blockbuster should be in April 2018. It was expected that the work on “Wolf Man” would go immediately after the “Mummy,” but now insiders do not rule out that the studio will dare to skip ahead to another film of the film series to wait for Johnson to have a window in his busy schedule.
The last time the werewolf Lawrence Talbot was on the screens in 2010. Joe Johnston’s picture with Benicio del Toro in the title role not only did not cause delight among the critics but also could not recoup the production costs. Not surprisingly, the studio bosses decided to take another attempt to reboot the famous horror film of 1941.
In the USA, The Wolf Man official release date in 2018 is planned for April 13.
DVD release date
The Wolf Man DVD release date is expected for June 13, 2018, in the US.
