Fans have been given a first look at Jacob Elordi as Frankenstein\u2019s Monster in the Guillermo del Toro adaptation. Surprise, surprise, the internet is still thirsting over the actor.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Netflix confirmed that the Euphoria star<\/a> would be joining forces with Moon Knight\u2019s Oscar Isaac<\/a> in del Toro\u2019s Frankenstein, based on Mary Shelley\u2019s horror novel, Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As the 1 June trailer notes, \u201conly monsters play God,\u201d while Victor Frankenstein (Isaac) says, \u201cIn seeking life, I created death.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now, a series of new images shows the internet\u2019s \u201cbabygirl\u201d<\/a> transforming into the Creature, but fans are still as h*rny as ever and have commented unhinged filth beneath the photos.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Appearing to be covered by a black cloak, On Swift Horses<\/a>\u2019 Elordi steps into the role previously intended for Andrew Garfield (who exited of the film due to scheduling conflicts, as per Vanity Fair<\/a>).\u00a0<\/p>\n

In the images, Elordi\u2019s shifty eyes peek out from under the robe, which also reveals a glimpse of his green skin, marked with scars. \u201cI still would,\u201d one fan hilariously responded to a Pop Crave<\/a> post of one image.<\/p>\n

\u201cNEED HIM,\u201d said a second, while a third quipped: \u201cUntil I feel the beast inside.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe can top me,\u201d another wrote.<\/p>\n

Speaking to the outlet, Elordi explained his process of becoming the Creature in del Toro\u2019s Frankenstein. \u201cBecause I came in so late, everything happened on top of each other at the same time. I was shooting as I was seeing, as I was understanding.\u201d<\/p>\n

He admitted that he transformed his apartment \u201cinto this shrine to all things that I felt pertained to the creature\u201d, including Bernie Wrightson\u2019s illustrations of the 1983 version of Frankenstein.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cBernie\u2019s pictures were all over the walls. Maybe when you\u2019re asleep, or just by walking around it all, you end up soaking it in.\u201d<\/p>\n

Netflix\u2019s Frankenstein is set to premiere at the Venice Film Festival in September before it is launched on the platform in November.<\/p>\n
