Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night may become a wolf when the wolfsbane blooms, and the autumn moon is jazzy bright. Indeed, the thought of transforming into a monstrous, bloodthirsty beast has never seemed so effortlessly cool now that we know Ryan Gosling is going to be the next The Wolfman.
News of the Oscar nominated actor (and one-time heartthrob) agreeing to go furry for Universal Pictures came late Friday evening. According to Variety, Gosling is already firmly onboard and Universal executives are currently interviewing directors for a new take on one of the all-time horror classics. Apparently, Cory Finley is the frontrunner but a lot seems to be unknown at the moment, including when the movie is set, albeit it’s presumed it will be in modern times like Universal’s successful reboot of The Invisible Man with Elisabeth Moss from earlier this year.
