First Look at James McAvoy and Daniel Radcliffe in Victor Frankenstein

20th Century Fox (via Empire) is giving us our first glimpse into the shocking world of science-gone-wrong with two behind-the-scenes set pics from Victor Frankenstein, which you can check out in the gallery below! 

James McAvoy is Viktor Von Frankenstein and Daniel Radcliffe stars as Igor in a unique, never-before-seen twist on Mary Shelley’s classic 19th century novel. Told from Igor’s perspective, we see the troubled young assistant’s dark origins, his redemptive friendship with the young medical student Viktor Von Frankenstein, and them become eyewitnesses to the emergence of how Frankenstein became the man – and the legend – we know today.

Directed by Paul McGuigan (Lucky Number Slevin) and adapted by Max Landis (Chronicle), Victor Frankenstein co-stars Jessica Brown Findlay, Andrew Scott, Mark Gatiss and Freddie Fox, and will be released on October 2 of this year.
