Here are the first shots of Academy Award-winning actor Benicio Del Torro in full makeup for the horror movie remake of “The Wolf Man”.

The film co-stars Anthony Hopkins, Hugo Weaving and Emily Blunt and features special make-up effects by Academy Award-winning make up artist, Rick Baker.

Joe Johnston (”Jumanji”, “Jurassic Park III”) took over the helm after original director Mark Romanek (”One Hour Photo”) left the project over budget disagreements. The film is scheduled for a April 3rd, 2009 release.
