Jacob Elordi will follow up his buzzworthy roles in 2023's Priscilla and Saltburn by joining one of Netflix's most highly-anticipated films. The streaming giant announced that the Euphoria star has signed on to Guillermo del Toro's upcoming feature-length spin on Frankenstein, where Elordi will play the mad scientist's creation. With Elordi teaming up with the beloved horror director (and all-time great Twitter user), odds are the 6'5'' actor will pull off an astounding performance.
The horror flick was first announced last year, with Deadline reporting in March 2023 that Oscar Isaac, Mia Goth, and Andrew Garfield were in talks to join the project. The outlet confirmed Sunday that Elordi will replace Garfield after the Amazing Spider-Man actor dropped out due to scheduling conflicts. Alongside Elordi, Isaac will play scientist Victor Frankenstein, while scream queen Mia Goth is expected to play the creator's love interest.
