Ryan Gosling exits Universal's Wolf Man film

The horror movie landscape is gearing up for another transformation with news that Ryan Gosling has stepped away from Universal and Blumhouse's 'Wolf Man' project. The film, sparked into development after the success of 'The Invisible Man,' has gone through multiple creative changes since its inception. Derek Cianfrance was initially set to direct, but with both he and Gosling exiting, the project is now back in the hands of Leigh Whannell. As the casting shifts, Christopher Abbott steps into the spotlight amidst speculation over whether he will actually portray the Wolf Man. The storyline revolves around a menacing predator that terrorizes a family, and despite these shake-ups, the release is scheduled for October 25, 2024. Ryan Gosling retains an executive producer credit, and with the pace set for a 'speedrun-like production,' anticipation for this classic monster's latest adaptation rises.

Christopher Abbott has been announced as the main star in the upcoming 'Wolf Man' movie after Ryan Gosling's departure from the cast.
