The post Christian Bale Is Frankenstein’s Monster in First Look at The Bride! appeared first on Consequence.

Maggie Gyllenhaal has offered the first look at The Bride!, revealing Christian Bale in character as Frankenstein’s monster and Jessie Buckley as the eponymous bride.

Gyllenhaal’s take on the Bride of Frankenstein also stars Penélope Cruz, Peter Sarsgaard, and Annette Bening. The plot sees “a lonely Frankenstein travels to 1930s Chicago to seek the aide of a Dr. Euphronius in creating a companion for himself. The two reinvigorate a murdered young woman and the Bride is born. She is beyond what either of them intended, igniting a combustible romance, the attention of the police and a wild and radical social movement.”

The Bride!, which marks Gyllenhaal’s second directorial effort, is scheduled to open in theaters on October 3rd, 2025.

Incidentally, it’s not the only Frankenstein movie in the works, as Guillermo del Toro is making his own version starring Jacob Elordi, Oscar Isaac, and Mia Goth.
