Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale make a “monstrous” couple within the first teaser for “The Bride!,” director Maggie Gyllenhaal‘s punk rock tackle “Bride of Frankenstein.”
The trendy, colourful, and bonkers first take a look at “The Bride” exhibits Buckley being revived and introduced again to life as Frankenstein’s bride, with him at one level killing some males in her protection and saying “Until Dying Do Us Half.”
Whereas we obtained a totally completely different take a look at the movie at CinemaCon again in April, each that first impression and this new one underscore how daring and weird Gyllenhaal’s tackle the monster film supply materials is.
The official synopsis reads: “A lonely Frankenstein (Bale) travels to Nineteen Thirties Chicago to ask groundbreaking scientist Dr. Euphronious (five-time Oscar nominee Annette Bening) to create a companion for him. The 2 revive a murdered younger girl, and The Bride (Buckley) is born. What ensues is past what both of them imagined: Homicide! Possession! A wild and radical cultural motion! And outlaw lovers in a wild and flamable romance!”
The movie stars Buckley, Bale, Peter Sarsgaard, with Bening, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Penélope Cruz. For Maggie Gyllenhaal, that is simply her second characteristic movie after first directing the very completely different “The Misplaced Daughter,” and she or he’s directing from her personal screenplay as effectively.
The movie was produced by Emma Tillinger Koskoff, Talia Kleinhendler, and Osnat Handelsman Keren. The manager producers are Carla Raij, David Webb, and Courtney Kivowitz.
Right here’s hoping that “The Bride!” is the newest in Warner Bros.‘ present scorching streak of formidable bets on filmmakers, capped by a yr that has included “Sinners,” “Weapons,” and “One Battle After One other.” “The Bride!” shall be offered in IMAX and hits North American theaters March 6, 2026.
Take a look at each a censored and an uncensored teaser, which, by our estimation, is simply the subtitle “FUCKING” forward of the phrase “BRIDE,” beneath.
