It’s no secret that writer/director/producer Guillermo del Toro is always one of the busiest guys working in movies. Constantly (or so it feels) we’re hearing about a new project he’s developing, or getting an update on one of the many things he’s been developing over the years. Today comes word on the latter.
Del Toro has Pacific Rim coming out soon, which will hopefully be bathing in piles of money so immense they dwarf the creatures he put on the screen in that movie. After that is Crimson Peak, the ghost movie with a strong cast he plans to begin filming in February of 2014.
But what about a pair of movies del Toro has been developing for a long time now, a new take on the tale of Frankenstein and an adaptation of the Kurt Vonnegut’s classic, Slaughterhouse-Five? He has plans for both of those very much in progress.
To say that Guillermo del Toro has a full slate would be the understatement of all understatements. The man basically has his choice of projects to do until the day he dies, and he’s endlessly adding more options to that pile.
One of del Toro’s possible projects is a take on Kurt Vonnegut‘s Slaughterhouse-Five, which is a tall order for anyone… making it perfect for the brain of Guillermo del Toro. When asked what he thinks of how the project could be done, he had much insight to offer.
