Plot Summary: Inspired by the classic Universal film that launched a legacy of horror, "The Wolfman" brings the myth of a cursed man back to its iconic origins. Oscar® winner Benicio Del Toro stars as Lawrence Talbot, a haunted nobleman lured back to his family estate after his brother vanishes. Reunited with his estranged father (Oscar® winner Anthony Hopkins), Talbot sets out to find his brother... and discovers a horrifying destiny for himself.

Lawrence Talbot's childhood ended the night his mother died. After he left the sleepy Victorian hamlet of Blackmoor, he spent decades recovering and trying to forget. But when his brother's fiancée, Gwen Conliffe (Emily Blunt), tracks him down to help find her missing love, Talbot returns home to join the search. He learns that something with brute strength and insatiable bloodlust has been killing the villagers, and that a suspicious Scotland Yard inspector named Aberline (Hugo Weaving) has come to investigate.

As he pieces together the gory puzzle, he hears of an ancient curse that turns the afflicted into werewolves when the moon is full. Now, if he has any chance at ending the slaughter and protecting the woman he has grown to love, Talbot must destroy the vicious creature in the woods surrounding Blackmoor. But as he hunts for the nightmarish beast, a simple man with a tortured past will uncover a primal side to himself... one he never imagined existed.

Keep it PG13 so kids can enjoy it as much as I did when I watched Lon Chaney in the original. Do it right and it to will be a classic.

Joe Johnston is directing this, it will be PG-13. I like Mr. Johnston, he did a great job on "Jurassic Park III".

Joe Johnston? Really? Universal is placing an Andrew Walker script starring Benicio freaking Del Toro in the hands of Joe Johnston. They should have persuaded Mark Romanek to stay or at least hired someone with a better eye for cinematography than the guy who did Jumanji and JP3.

this movie should be rated R, they need to start bringing out more of a darkside to these classics... as they have done with Batman... and hopefully the Wolverine movie....Anthony Hopkins is gonna be awesome in this movie...

man if its rated r it'll make more money, it'll be better and the fact that our children will watch it when they're older will make it a classic with huge resale/remastering opportunities.

I agree- screw pg-13 crap. This is a horror movie - not a kid's movie. Make it R, make it good.

There is no way in the world that this will be rated 'R'...no way.
