The "Wolf Man" is here. Universal and Blumhouse's latest update of a classic Universal Monsters character, following 2020's excellent "The Invisible Man" (also written and directed by "Wolf Man" filmmaker Leigh Whannell) has finally arrived.

This weekend sees the latest in a new generation of “Universal Monster” movies with Wolf Man. Director Leigh Whannell previously struck gold with his adaptation of The Invisible Man and while his new film isn’t receiving quite the response from critics, it’s still poised to be a solid hit, thanks to a less than blockbuster budget.

Fans of SCTV may remember a Monster Chiller Horror Theatre episode in which Joe Flaherty’s late-night host, Count Floyd, mistakenly programs a made-up Ingmar Bergman film, Whispers of the Wolf, thinking it’s a simple werewolf picture instead of a moody, existential mashup of Bergman’s Hour of the Wolf and Persona.

"Wolf Man," starring Juila Garner and Christopher Abbott tries a new spin on the classic werewolf movie. Lee Whannell co-wrote and directed the film.

Unfortunately for Blake, he spots a familiar tattoo on the werewolf's arm, revealing that the werewolf was his father. This tragic reveal is a callback and a reversal of the ending of The Wolf Man.

Leigh Whannell returns to the Universal vein with Wolf Man, shooting this werewolf tale full of modern anxiety.

Wolf Man stars Julia Garner and Christopher Abbott join producer Beatriz Sequeira and writer/director Leigh Whannell to discuss how they reimagined the iconic werewolf tale and the essentials of telling a good werewolf story.

Leigh Whannell's new "Wolf Man" film stars Christopher Abbott and Julia Garner, and it's filled with twists and turns.

A ccording to an old parable, we all hold two wolves within. We must feed the good wolf in order to build its strength. Then there’s the werewolf. It lives within as well. And when he comes out to play, bringing humanity’s suppressed animalism to the surface, you can bet there’s a bad moon rising.

Leigh Whannell sets the record straight about why the Hollywood star of films like 'The Fall Guy' and 'Barbie' decided not to make 'Wolf Man'.
