Fans have wondered why Radcliffe didn’t appear to be a hunchback (as this is how the Igor character is generally depicted) in those initial set pics we saw last year, but by the sounds of things he was until Frankenstein had his way with him. This is something Empire discovered when they visited the Surrey set of the movie and spoke to James McAvoy. “As much as the monster is his creation, Igor is his creation as well,” explained the X-Men star. “That was quite exciting. It’s funny, the script, but also really dark, in a cool way.”
For more be sure to pick up the latest issue of Empire when it hits shelves on April 30. Victor Frankenstein is directed by Paul McGuigan from a script by Max Landis, and also stars Mark Gatiss, Jessica Brown Findlay and Andrew Scott. The movie is set for release on October 2, 2015.
