Guillermo del Toro\u2019s new film, Frankenstein, has just dropped on Netflix, and people who love Mary Shelley\u2019s iconic 1818 novel might wonder: How close is it to the original story?<\/p>\n

Del Toro, who\u2019s called Shelley\u2019s book his \u201cBible,\u201d brings his own dark and emotional twist to the gothic classic. The film stars Oscar Isaac as the ambitious Victor Frankenstein, Jacob Elordi<\/a> as the Creature, and Mia Goth as Elizabeth. But while it keeps the heart of Shelley\u2019s tale, it definitely takes a few creative turns along the way.<\/p>\n

So, what\u2019s del Toro\u2019s Frankenstein all about??<\/h2>\n

Speaking to Variety<\/a>, Julie Carlson, a Mary Shelley expert and professor at the University of California, explained exactly how close del Toro\u2019s Frankenstein is to the original novel.<\/p>\n

At its core, it\u2019s still the same tragic story: A brilliant but obsessed scientist creates life and then must face the consequences. But del Toro\u2019s take is less about science gone wrong and more about emotion, shame and forgiveness.<\/p>\n

As Carlson explained, del Toro clearly has a deep respect for the novel. \u201cI did feel, certainly in comparison to other renditions, there was real love for the book and for Mary Shelley\u2019s brilliance,\u201d she said. \u201cIt was more faithful to the framed narrative, to the ways that Victor and the Creature get to tell their own story.\u201d<\/p>\n

Victor has a new backstory<\/h2>\n

In the Netflix<\/a> film, Victor\u2019s father is a violent doctor who abuses him and experiments on his mother, a major addition not found in the novel. This change shifts the story\u2019s focus.<\/p>\n

Carlson pointed out that it\u2019s less about Victor\u2019s pride and ambition (as in the book) and more about his shame and need to prove himself. \u201cIt\u2019s less about hubris, although of course that\u2019s there, and more about shame. The way the father slaps [Victor] around when he can\u2019t learn his lessons, and then he strikes the Creature when the Creature doesn\u2019t learn as quickly as he wants him to, I think that\u2019s interesting,\u201d she said. \u201cIt seemed to me there was a little less Faustian stuff about knowledge and power, and more about knowledge and shame and not living up to the name Victor or his father\u2019s reputation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Elizabeth gets a whole new role<\/h2>\n
\"Frankenstein

One of the biggest changes in the film is the character of Elizabeth. In Shelley\u2019s book, she\u2019s Victor\u2019s fianc\u00e9e and quite passive. In the movie, though, she\u2019s engaged to Victor\u2019s younger brother and is a scientist herself, an entomologist who studies insects.<\/p>\n

Carlson actually thinks this is a clever move. \u201cShelley once described Elizabeth as \u2018playful as an insect,\u2019\u201d she noted. Basically, Del Toro turns that tiny detail into something meaningful.\u201d<\/p>\n

Here, Elizabeth is confident, independent, and not afraid to challenge Victor. She even calls him out when he tries to pretend everything\u2019s fine.<\/p>\n

Also, Elizabeth and the Creature have a surprising bond in the film. In the book, they don\u2019t meet until the end, when he kills her on her wedding night. But del Toro flips this completely. In his version, they meet several times, and she\u2019s one of the only people who shows him kindness.<\/p>\n

Their connection feels deep, almost romantic at times, though Carlson said it\u2019s really about understanding. \u201cI think there is a sympathy between the Creature and Elizabeth that is about being a subordinated figure,\u201d she explained. \u201cI think she identifies with him.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Creature feels more human than ever<\/h2>\n
\"Frankenstein
via Netflix<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Jacob Elordi\u2019s Creature is nothing like the classic green monster from the old films. Instead, he\u2019s gentle, thoughtful and heartbreakingly human.<\/p>\n

Carlson loved this change. \u201cHe humanises the Creature,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd he does a lot more with face-to-face communication.\u201d<\/p>\n

But she also pointed out that Shelley\u2019s original story was more about responsibility, what happens when you create life and then abandon it. Del Toro softens that edge, turning the Creature into a symbol of compassion instead of terror.<\/p>\n

So, how close is del Toro\u2019s version to the book?<\/h2>\n
\"Frankenstein
via Netflix<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Del Toro\u2019s Frankenstein isn\u2019t a scene-by-scene retelling, but it absolutely captures the heart of Shelley\u2019s original. It swaps out some of her social commentary for more personal emotion, yet the story still asks the same haunting questions: What makes us human, and what happens when we lose empathy?<\/p>\n

Del Toro even includes one part of the book that\u2019s usually skipped in most adaptations, the Creature\u2019s time with the De Lacey family. Carlson called this one of the film\u2019s most faithful and emotional sequences. She said that it really captures Shelley\u2019s ideas about friendship and humanity.<\/p>\n

Overall, Carlson believes del Toro\u2019s version stays true to the spirit of the novel, even if it changes some details. \u201cIt\u2019s closer to the multi-layered nature of Shelley\u2019s text. It really does divide the film like the book and frames it in the same way. And it\u2019s really not a horror film, it\u2019s a gothic film. I would certainly say it\u2019s more like the book, and it\u2019s trying to honour not just the book, but Mary Shelley\u201d<\/p>\n
