Peter Sarsgaard has revealed that his wife Maggie Gyllenhaal’s new film “The Bride!” will be a violent, punk, wildly romantic film that’s also got song and dance sequences?
Warner Bros. Pictures is releasing the film which stars Christian Bale, Jessie Buckley, Annette Bening, Penelope Cruz, John Mulaney, Sarsgaard and Jake Gyllenhaal.
The $80-100 million project has been dubbed a reimagination of James Whale’s iconic 1935 classic “Bride of Frankenstein” in which a lonely Frankenstein monster (Bale) travels to 1930s Chicago to seek the aide of a Dr. Euphronius in creating a companion for himself.
The two reinvigorate a murdered young woman and the Bride (Jessie Buckley) is born. She is beyond what either of them intended, igniting a combustible romance, the attention of the police and a wild and radical social movement.
Speaking with THR, Sarsgaard described the recently wrapped filming project which sounds quite wild:
“The Bride is punk, and it’s fast and really emotional. Also, it’s violent at times and it’s wildly romantic… There are big dance numbers and stuff in the movie. I’m so happy with the way that Warner Bros. has supported Maggie on the movie, too… It’s the best thing I’ve ever read. To me, it’s both a big movie for adults and a big movie that’s for teenagers. It’s what everyone hopes for and tries to solve in making a big movie.”
Cinematographer Lawrence Sher, who shot “Joker: Folie a Deux” which also has its musical numbers, is lensing the film which is set for a theatrical and IMAX launch on October 3rd 2025.
