Official Synopsis for Victor Frankenstein

Formerly known as Frankenstein, comes 20th Century Fox’s Victor Frankenstein, and with a quick name change we have finally scored the official plot details for the upcoming flick.

The film stars James McAvoy and Daniel Radcliffe, and is directed by Paul McGuigan from a script penned by Max Landis.

Synopsis: James McAvoy is Victor Von Frankenstein and Daniel Radcliffe stars as Igor in a unique, never-before-seen twist on Mary Shelley’s classic 19th century novel. Told from Igor’s perspective, we see the troubled young assistant’s dark origins, his redemptive friendship with the young medical student Victor Von Frankenstein, and become eyewitnesses to the emergence of how Frankenstein became the man—and the legend—we know today.
