The Wolfman trailer 02


This isn't quite as impressive as the first trailer, but the movie still looks like oodles of fun. I could do without the heavy metal music, but this obviously feels like more of a teen sell than the initial trailer. The film remains refreshingly adult, both in its casting and its period-piece tones. Despite his reputation as a serious actor, Anthony Hopkins really is at his best (and seems to be having the most fun) when digging his teeth into pulpy material (The Silence of the Lambs, Bram Stoker's Dracula, The Mask of Zorro). Both trailers seem to be stressing Anthony Hopkins as the villain, so I can only wonder if the real culprit is Hugo Weaving (or Emily Blunt?). The Wolfman remains one of films I'm most looking forward to in 2010. It comes out February 12th and sounds like the perfect Valentine's Day date movie.
