“Watch ‘Wolf Man’ Horror Thriller on Peacock This Week”

Wolf Man, a remake of the classic Universal Studios Monsters film starring Lon Chaney Jr., is now available for streaming on Peacock. Directed by Leigh Whannell, who also helmed the 2020 remake of The Invisible Man, Wolf Man tells the story of Charlotte and Blake, played by Julia Garner and Christopher Abbott, a couple dealing with a troubled marriage.

The plot follows Charlotte, Blake, and their young daughter Ginger as they visit a remote house in the Oregon mountains that belonged to Blake’s late father. However, their peaceful retreat takes a terrifying turn when Blake is attacked by a werewolf, triggering a physical transformation that puts his family in jeopardy.

The film offers a fresh take on the werewolf transformation, with a slow and eerie pacing that adds to the suspense. According to Julia Garner, who plays Charlotte, this gradual change makes the scares more effective by retaining familiar elements of the character despite the monstrous transformation.

Wolf Man has performed well at the box office, earning $20.7 million domestically and $14.1 million internationally, surpassing its $25 million production budget. Despite mixed reviews from critics and audiences, the film has generated buzz for its thrilling take on the classic monster tale.
