Writer/director, Stuart Beattie (Tomorrow When the War Began) explains, “Mary Shelley’s story is about the creation of the first human being. I, Frankenstein is the story about that being becoming human.”
I, Frankenstein is currently slated for a 22 February 2013 release from Lionsgate in the US. Hopscotch/eOne will distribute the film in Australia.
