Mary Shelley's novel Frankenstein gets another twist in the upcoming film starring James McAvoy and Daniel Radcliffe, Victor Frankenstein. One of the film's biggest changes in the story is the depiction of Igor, and it has a more buddy comedy kind of feel to it, which reminds us of Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes.
Two new trailers have been released: a domestic trailer and a UK trailer. You can watch it below:
