One such filmmaker is Oscar-winning director Guillermo Del Toro, who has for more than a decade been trying to adapt H.P. Lovecraft’s seminal horror classic At the Mountains of Madness for the big screen.
In a recent interview with Indiewire, Del Toro revealed that his commitment to making the movie will never waver, even unto death.
So fans who had been hoping to see Del Toro spearhead a Lovecraft Cinematic Universe based on the Cthulhu mythology should not hold out hope for an At the Mountains of Madness film any time soon.
Hollywood is full of filmmakers who never got to work on their true passion projects due to the fickle nature of the industry.
