This is the third and final instalment in our three-part Frankenstein extravaganza. We’ve heard from a Shelley scholar about the origins of the book, we’ve heard from Guillermo Del Toro about the themes of the book, but today I wanted to focus on the characters of the book. Two people who know these characters very well are Oscar Isaac and Jacob Elordi.

In Guillermo Del Toro’s Frankenstein, Oscar portrays the eponymous Victor Frankenstein, while Jacob takes on the role of the creature. Their performances are magnificent, Jacob manages to show so many emotions just through his eyes, while Oscar delivers a captivating and raw journey throughout Victor’s life. Their on-screen chemistry is truly extraordinary and I hope they’ve got a lot of suits ready for awards season, because they’re going to need them.

I was extremely lucky to have the opportunity to chat with these world class actors, about Frankenstein in particular but also books in general. I hope you enjoy the chat, and stay tuned afterwards for a special reading from the novel.
