In this gothic re-imagining of Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus, brilliant yet egotistical scientist Victor Frankenstein (Oscar Isaac) defies nature and mortality by assembling and awakening a creature (Jacob Elordi) from the dead. As his experiment spirals out of control, both creator and creation are drawn into a harrowing spiral of abandonment, identity, and vengeance—culminating in a frozen Arctic confrontation that forces Victor to reckon with what he’s unleashed and the creature with what it means to exist.
