Del Toro Makes One Hell Of A Good Looking Wolfman!

I have to admit that this new photo of Benecio Del Toro, as the Wolfman, really reminds me a lot of Lon Chaney Jr in has famous portrayal of the role. Monster makeup artist Rick Baker has really captured the original look of The Wolfman for Joe Johnston’s remake, which will hit theaters in 2009.

Early leeks point to a film that will be very much like the original 1941 movie that was directed by George Waggner. The charactor Del Toro plays is actually named Larry Talbot, which was also the name of the original Wolfman played by Lon Chaney Jr.
