You know his face from having seen him in “Harry Potter” or “Game of Thrones”, Ralph Ineson is an essential actor in horror cinema. And it is therefore logical that Guillermo del Toro calls on him for his “Frankenstein”.
He’s a bit of a descendant of Robert Englund or Tobin Bell when it comes to horror. His face is known, he remains engraved in our memories but we do not necessarily remember his name. And yet… English actor Ralph Ineson was chosen by Guillermo del Toro to play in his expected Frankenstein on Netflix.
The Mexican director has confirmed that he will play a “vital cameo” in his next film. On X (formerly Twitter), Guillermo del Toro confirmed that Ralph Ineson plays a small but story-important role in Frankenstein.
“Ralph plays a vital role in F. We shot it a few weeks ago. He is amazing and a pleasure to work with.“, we can read in del Toro’s message, a retweet from Ineson flattered to have been entitled to his portrait in Fangoriawhere he says: “It’s very flattering, we genre actors rarely get this kind of attention, thank you.“
