Synopsis
"Inspired by the classic Universal film that launched a legacy of horror, The Wolfman brings
the myth of a cursed man back to its iconic origins. Oscar® winner Benicio Del Toro stars as
Lawrence Talbot, a haunted nobleman lured back to his family estate after his brother vanishes.
Reunited with his estranged father (Oscar® winner Anthony Hopkins), Talbot sets out to find his
brother…and discovers a horrifying destiny for himself. Lawrence Talbot’s childhood ended the night
his mother died. After he left the sleepy Victorian hamlet of Blackmoor, he spent decades recovering
and trying to forget. But when his brother’s fiancée, Gwen Conliffe (Emily Blunt), tracks him down to
help find her missing love, Talbot returns home to join the search. He learns that something with brute
strength and insatiable bloodlust has been killing the villagers, and that a suspicious Scotland Yard inspector
named Aberline (Hugo Weaving) has come to investigate. As he pieces together the gory puzzle, he hears of an ancient
curse that turns the afflicted into werewolves when the moon is full. Now, if he has any chance at ending the slaughter
and protecting the woman he has grown to love, Talbot must destroy the vicious creature in the woods surrounding Blackmoor.
But as he hunts for the nightmarish beast, a simple man with a tortured past will uncover a primal side to
himself…one he never imagined existed."
