10 Upcoming Horror Movies That Made PERFECT Casting Choices
4. Jessie Buckley & Christian Bale - The Bride!
While test screening reports on Maggie Gyllenhaal's bold new Bride of Frankenstein adaptation are all over the place, you're likely to find few arguing with the two central casting choices.
The great Jessie Buckley will star as Frankenstein's bride, while Frankenstein's monster will be played by the legendary Christian Bale.
Buckley is such a brilliantly expressive actress, and considering The Bride! is reportedly a partial musical, it'll clearly make use of the singing chops that made her famous both on 2008's BBC talent show I'd Do Anything and 2018's musical drama film Wild Rose. As for Bale, there are few actors who can match his level of fierce intensity, and it's easy to see how he'll bring a unique, unforgettable energy to this iteration of Frankenstein's monster.
Together they're sure to make for a dynamite duo on screen as they play off one another, and it's tough to think of a more intriguing pairing for this wild reimagining of the classic text.
