With a filmography that includes The Shape of Water and Crimson Peak, Guillermo del Toro is no stranger to Gothic stories or sympathetic outcasts. They're themes he's tackling again in his latest movie Frankenstein – and ones he'd like to explore in an adaptation of The Phantom of the Opera.
"The Phantom of the Opera, because it's such a classic tale, but I would do it differently," del Toro told Inverse when asked which misunderstood villain he'd like to take on next. "I have a couple of ideas but for now, I’m going into crime and stop-motion."
