(The cold-activated bottle means it’s ready to fire!)

After the jump, you can watch the second trailer for Wolfman, starring Benicio Del Toro, Anthony Hopkins, and Hugo Weaving; directed by Joe Johnston, who replaced Mark Romanek early in production.  Johnston (Hidalgo, Jumanji, The Rocketeer, Jurassic Park III) is known as a guy who’s strong on visual effects and maybe not so strong on story.  The trailer seems to take the same approach, and looks pretty badass, even if Benicio Del Toro looks less wolf-like in his Wolfman makeup than he does in regular life.


How come there aren’t more people-turning-into-wolves movies?  Personally, I could do with a lot more wolf-person movies and a lot fewer zombie movies.  Asked what would make his wolf man different from previous wolf men, Benicio Del Toro answered, “He flip you,” in a strange accent, then took a drag of his cigarette.
