The Bride (2026 Film)

Maggie Gyllenhaal has committed a completely unruly, feminist reinterpretation of Frankenstein with Oscar winners Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale in the lead roles.

The lonely Frankenstein travels to 1930s Chicago to ask the skilled Dr. Euphronious to create a companion. They revive a murdered woman, and thus The Bride is created. What happens next exceeds both their imaginations. Murder! Obsession! A wild and radical cultural movement! Lovers on the wrong side of the law in a wild and flammable romance!
