Emily Blunt’s best known as the hot British assistant in THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA.

Not sure about del Toro in the Chaney role, but Hopkins as Claude Rains ROCKS!

Now, who’s playing Maria Ouspenskya?

Cheney JR had the right amount of horror for what he was doing. He showed the guilt yet knew he could not fight it and win.  
Wish our VP Dickie Cheney could feel the pain of his actions.  
Ospenskya was perfect as the old gypsy who figured out what was going to happen.

> The first contender is Breck Eisner, the director behind the failed adaptation of the Clive Cussler novel Sahara. Eisner actually would be a pretty good pick, since he seems interested in the era of the original Wolf Man picture, trying to get his own adaptation of _Creature from the Black Lagoon_ off the ground over the past few years.
