Lawrence saw his father standing over her dead body he was sent to Lambeth Hospital in London for a year, having suffered from delusions connected to the event. Lawrence has flashbacks as he tours his family's home where his mother Solana seemingly committed suicide when he was a boy. Another claims there was a similar murder 25 years earlier a werewolf was the suspected killer. However, many blame Romani who are camped outside the town. Lawrence reunites with his estranged father Sir John, who informs him that Ben's body has already been found mutilated.Īt a local pub, Lawrence overhears the locals believing it to be a wild animal. His brother, Shakespearean actor Lawrence Talbot, returns home after receiving a letter from Ben's fiancée Gwen Conliffe informing him of Ben's disappearance. In 1891, Ben Talbot is attacked in the woods by a wolf-like humanoid. Despite the film's failure, Rick Baker and make-up effects supervisor Dave Elsey won the Academy Award for Best Makeup at the 83rd Academy Awards for their work. The film was also a box office bomb, grossing $142.6 million against a production budget of $150 million. The Wolfman was theatrically released on February 12, 2010, by Universal Pictures to negative reviews although the makeup received praise. Danny Elfman was briefly replaced by Paul Haslinger as the film's composer, however, the studio reverted to Elfman's previously completed score a month before the film's release after finding Haslinger's electronic-based score unsuitable. The film underwent numerous alternative versions during post-production. However, re-shoots extended production, inflated the budget, and delayed the film's release several times. Johnston was hired four weeks before principal photography, under the impression he could shoot the film in 80 days as Universal intended.
Mark Romanek was originally attached to direct the film but left weeks before filming due to creative differences and budgetary issues. In the film, after his brother is brutally murdered, an actor based in America returns to his ancestral homeland in England, where he is bitten by a werewolf and cursed to become one. A remake of the 1941 film The Wolf Man, it stars Benicio del Toro (who also produces), Anthony Hopkins, Emily Blunt and Hugo Weaving. The Wolfman is a 2010 American period horror film directed by Joe Johnston, from a screenplay by Andrew Kevin Walker and David Self.
