And while Jacob is the latest in a long line of stars to play Frankenstein’s monster, joining the likes Boris Karloff, Robert De Niro And Benedict CumberbatchTHE Euphoria Star was originally only going to watch these performances again for inspiration before filming began.
“At first I said to myself, ‘I’ll stay away from this. I want to do my own thing,’” he confessed. “And then I asked Guillermo, ‘Should I watch the other Frankensteins?’ “And he said, ‘What do you mean?'”
When Jacob shared that he didn’t want to be “influenced” by the other films, Guillermo was quick to assure him that his performance would be his own.
“He said, ‘My friend, it’s a movie, it can’t hurt you,’” Jacob recalls. “I went home and just bound them.”
