What is Marvel’s Werewolf by Night about?
“Now presented in vibrant color, Marvel Studios’ Werewolf by Night in Color takes place on a dark and somber night as a secret cabal of monster hunters emerge from the shadows and gather at the foreboding Bloodstone Temple following the death of their leader,” the synopsis reads. “In a strange and macabre memorial to the leader’s life, the attendees are thrust into a mysterious and deadly competition for a powerful relic — a hunt that will ultimately bring them face to face with a dangerous monster. Inspired by horror films of the 1930s and 1940s, the chilling special aims to evoke a sense of dread and the macabre, with plenty of suspense and scares along the way as we explore a new corner of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.”
The original, black-and-white special hit Disney+ on October 7, 2022. Its stars Gael García Bernal as Jack Russell/Werewolf by Night, Laura Donnelly as Elsa Bloodstone, Harriet Sansom Harris as Verussa Bloodstone, and Carey Jones as Man-Thing.
In a recent interview with Marvel.com, Giacchino spoke about how the colorized version of Werewolf by Night came to be. “When we shot it, we tried to— at least in my head, I always knew black and white was foremost, the first version we were going to do,” he explained. “But I also kept an eye on what we were doing color-wise, in hopes that if we did a color version, it could be fun.” So I think it’s just a fun, nice way to reintroduce it to the world in a different way for them to experience Werewolf By Night.”
Werewolf by Night in Color releases on Disney+ on October 20, 2023. The black-and-white version of Werewolf by Night is currently streaming on Disney+ and Hulu.
