Remake of the 1941 horror film of the same name set in the 1880s. Benicio Del Toro stars as Lawrence Talbot, a gentleman tormented by the death of his mother and subsequent end of his childhood, who leaves home to try and rid himself of the memories and hurt. However, years later he is contacted by his brother's fiancee, Gwen Conliffe (Emily Blunt), who tells of how her love has gone missing, leading Talbot to return home in order to help with the search. Upon his arrival, however, he discovers that something horrifyingly strong with a seemingly unquenchable thirst for blood has been terrorising the villagers. With the death toll rising, a very suspicious Inspector Aberline (Hugo Weaving) from Scotland Yard is on the case. As he begins to uncover the truth, he hears about a curse that transforms the affected into a werewolf under the full moon...

Lawrence Talbot’s childhood ended the night his mother died. After he left the sleepy Victorian hamlet of Blackmoor, he spent decades recovering and trying to forget. But when his brother’s fiancée, Gwen Conliffe (Emily Blunt), tracks him down to help find her missing love, Talbot returns home to join the search. He learns that something with brute strength and insatiable bloodlust has been killing the villagers, and that a suspicious Scotland Yard inspector named Aberline (Hugo Weaving) has come to investigate. As he pieces together the gory puzzle, he hears of an ancient curse that turns the afflicted into werewolves when the moon is full. Now, if he has any chance at ending the slaughter and protecting the woman he has grown to love, Talbot must destroy the vicious creature in the woods surrounding Blackmoor. But as he hunts for the nightmarish beast, a simple man with a tortured past will uncover a primal side to himself…one he never imagined existed.
