Director Leigh Whannell (The Invisible Man) resurrects another classic Universal Monster with Wolf Man this month, a fresh take on the legendary werewolf tale that’s howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025 from Universal and Blumhouse. Now that the wait is almost over, tickets for Whannell’s Wolf Man have officially gone up for grabs this morning!

Christopher Abbott (Poor Things) stars in the new movie as Blake, a husband and father who inherits his remote childhood home in rural Oregon after his own father vanishes. With his marriage to wife Charlotte (Julia Garner) fraying, Blake persuades Charlotte to visit the property with their young daughter, Ginger (Matlida Firth). But as the family approaches the farmhouse in the dead of night, they’re attacked by an unseen animal and, in a desperate escape, barricade themselves inside the home as the creature prowls the perimeter.
Beginning with the Universal Monsters classic in 1941 starring Lon Chaney Jr., the Wolf Man character has appeared on screen many times over the years. The most recent attempt to introduce the character to a new generation was Joe Johnston’s The Wolfman starring Benicio del Toro, which ultimately ended up failing to kickstart a new “Dark Universe.”
Thankfully, Universal has moved beyond the desire to create an interconnected universe of tales, instead hiring filmmakers like Leigh Whannell to focus on solo movies like this one.
