Lionsgate Resurrecting "I, Frankenstein"

Sneak Peek concept artwork for the upcoming Lakeshore Entertainment, Hopscotch Features, Lionsgate motion picture production, "I, Frankenstein", starring actor Aaron Eckhart as 'Adam Frankenstein'.

Eckhart previously played the scarred villain 'Two-Face' in "The Dark Knight".

Filming starts in Australia January 2012, from a script by Stuart Beattie who will also direct, based on the "I, Frankenstein" graphic novel by Kevin Grevioux, co-creator of the "Underworld" movie franchise :

"...in 'I, Frankenstein', Frankenstein's creature 'Adam', has survived to present day due to a genetic quirk in his creation.

"Making his way to a dark, gothic metropolis, he finds himself caught in an all-out, centuries old war between two immortal clans..."

"Mary Shelly's story is about the creation of the first human being, said Beattie. "This is the story about that being, becoming human."

"There could be no more achingly human performance than the one Aaron gave in our own 'Rabbit Hole', " said Lionsgate’s co-COO and Motion Picture Group President Joe Drake. "We are so excited to see what he will bring to this role".
