The Bride – TRAILER

Check out the trailer for *THE BRIDE*, a fresh and daring new film based on a classic story! It’s from Maggie Gyllenhaal, the Academy Award-nominated writer and director of *The Lost Daughter*, and stars Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale, both Academy Award winners and nominees.

In 1930s Chicago, a solitary Frankenstein’s monster (Christian Bale) seeks out the brilliant Dr. Euphronious (Annette Bening) hoping she can create a partner for him. They succeed in bringing a young, murdered woman back to life, creating The Bride (Jessie Buckley). But their creation unleashes a series of unexpected events – including murder, obsession, a surprising new cultural trend, and a passionate, dangerous love affair – far beyond what either of them anticipated.

Universal’s *Bride of Frankenstein* was a classic black and white horror film, but this new movie from Warner Bros. offers a very different take on the story. It should be a good contrast to the upcoming *Frankenstein* film by Guillermo del Toro, which will be released on Netflix.

Featuring Jessie Buckley, Christian Bale – whose makeup evokes classic monster films – Peter Sarsgaard (the director’s husband), Annette Bening, Jake Gyllenhaal (the director’s brother), and Penélope Cruz, this new version of the story boasts a stellar cast.

This is the second time the story of *The Bride of Frankenstein* has been reimagined for film, following the 1985 version starring Sting and Jennifer Beals, which coincided with the 50th anniversary of the original 1935 movie. Based on the trailer, this new version appears to be a visually striking take on the classic tale, and with its talented cast, it’s likely to attract a large audience.

THE BRIDE! is in cinemas 6th March 2026
