'Frankenstein' Director Confirms Logo Is Mary Shelley's Handwriting

Guillermo del Toro's Frankensteinis now in select theaters and available on Netflix, with its debut on streaming allowing audiences to dissect every single corner of every single scene. One Easter egg that del Toro himself recently confirmed, though, has basically been staring us in the face for months: the typography of the title "Frankenstein" in the film's poster and promotional materials is that of author Mary Shelley. With the years del Toro spent developing the film, this Easter egg only helps solidify the reverence he has for author Shelley and her novel Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus.
