Javier Bardem still wants to play Frankenstein's monster: 'I have the looks'

Dark Universe, we hardly knew ye.

But his dream of portraying the classic character?It’s alive, it’s alive!

“Me personally, I would love to play Frankenstein.

Actually, I would like to play both Dr. Frankenstein and Frankenstein the monster.

Because it’s the dichotomy and the contradiction of one… the same being.

But I don’t know if that’s going to be the case or not.

As far as I know, it’s not happening.”

As for Bardem’s Frankenstein’s qualifications?

“I have the looks,” he quipped.

“I have the head size, that’s for sure.”

“The only one that I will recall that could do Frankenstein isJosh Brolin,” he said.

“He has the same size head as me.

I don’t know who else can do that.

With some screws in our forehead, it could work, absolutely.”

And we never shared the screen together.

And Josh said, ‘No wonder we can’t share the screen.

These are the three biggest heads in cinema history.

you’re able to’t put those three heads together in one frame.’

It was like, yeah, right, that’s why the Cohens didn’t put us together."
