Jacob Elordi confirmed he will play Guillermo del Toro's 'Frankenstein.'

Jacob Elordi talked about his first project with Guillermo del Toro after everyone find out that Andrew Garfield would no longer be in the film Frankenstein, the project in which the tapatío would be working now. A few days ago the site Deadline reported that there were changes in the cast of Frankenstein, as it was already official that the main actors would be Mia Goth, Oscar Isaac, Christoph Waltz and Andrew Garfield. The news came from Netflix.

The protagonist of Tick, Tick, Boom! is out of the project and, in his place, Elordi was the right option, who is currently one of Hollywood's favorite histrions for his performance in Saltburn. This change had not been confirmed until the night of January 19, when Jacob shared the news with Jimmy Fallon.
