The Art & Making Of Frankenstein: Written and Directed by Guillermo del Toro is a massive, beautifully crafted tome that provides an informative behind-the-scenes look at visionary filmmaker Guillermo del Toro‘s latest feature film, Frankenstein, an adaptation of Mary Shelley’s 1818 literary masterpiece Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus.

When director Guillermo del Toro calls something his “passion project,” you know that if he gets to see it through to fruition, it’s going to be amazing. Reimagining Mary Shelley’s classic novel for the big screen was one of Del Toro’s childhood aspirations, and with 2025’s Frankenstein, his dream has been triumphantly realized.
