The Wolfman First Trailer

Set in the late 1880s, the film keeps the plotline of the original, with Lawrence Talbot (Benicio del Toro) meeting his father (Anthony Hopkins) following the death (and in the remake, disappearance) of his brother. The film details events during Lawrence's past that led to his estrangement from his father (which includes Gwen), and the setting is changed from the mythical Welsh village of Llanwelly to the English village of Blackmore and the city of London.The official synopsis states Talbot was traumatized by his mother's death as a child, while Gwen Conliffe (Emily Blunt) is his brother's fiancée. Following his brother's disappearance, Talbot hunts a murderer, which turns out to be a werewolf, and the curse is passed on.

Cast
Benicio del Toro as Lawrence Talbot/The Wolfman
Anthony Hopkins as Sir John Talbot, Lawrence's father. Hopkins said the Universal Horror series "when played today come across as pretty corny, but they were entertaining."
Emily Blunt as Gwen Conliffe, with whom Talbot falls in love. Blunt liked the "mythological", "Gothic and majestic" story and signed on despite her fear of horror films. Blunt said Gwen was probably the first "innately good" character she ever played.
Hugo Weaving as Detective Aberline, who investigates murders by the transformed Talbot. The name Francis Aberline is a play on Frederick Abberline, who was a real life victorian inspector working on the Jack the Ripper case; his real nickname was indeed Francis
Geraldine Chaplin as Maleva, an old Gypsy.
Gene Simmons as The Wolfman (voice).
Art Malik, Rob Dixon, Nicholas Day, Michael Cronin, David Schofield, David Sterne, Roger Frost, Dianne Pilkington and Clive Russell have also been confirmed, although their roles are not known.
