James McAvoy & Daniel Radcliffe Frankenstein Gets New Name, Release Date & Synopsis

The upcoming Frankenstein movie set to star James McAvoy and Daniel Radcliffe will now be titled “Victor Frankenstein.”

In addition, Fox pushed the release date back to October 2, 2015 (from an original January release).

Here is the new synopsis as well:

James McAvoy is Victor Von Frankenstein and Daniel Radcliffe stars as Igor in a unique, never-before-seen twist on Mary Shelley’s classic 19th century novel. Told from Igor’s perspective, we see the troubled young assistant’s dark origins, his redemptive friendship with the young medical student Victor Von Frankenstein, and become eyewitnesses to the emergence of how Frankenstein became the man—and the legend—we know today.

Victor Frankenstein is being directed by Paul McGuigan.
