Just last week, Universal also decided that The Hunchback of Notre Dame, The Phantom of the Opera and Dracula will join the other already-announced characters, including Frankenstein’s monster, The Bride of Frankenstein, The Wolfman, The Invisible Man, The Creature from the Black Lagoon, and Van Helsing.
Javier Bardem will play Frankenstein’s monster, Johnny Depp is signed on as the Invisible Man, and we’ve already seen Russell Crowe and Tom Cruise as major characters.
Universal already has a fairly lengthy plan for its Dark Universe and has signed on some A-list names to play popular cinematic characters.
So if Universal can pull together some incredible movies in the future, the box office here could eventually shine brighter, too.
