Christoph Waltz: who is he?Actor Christoph Waltz is from Austria. His most well-known roles have been in films like The Legend of Tarzan, Spectre, the James Bond movie, Inglourious Basterds, and Django Unchained, directed by Quentin Tarantino.

His portrayals of villainous characters are well-known, and he has been recognised with two Oscars for Best Supporting Actor for his work in Django Unchained and Inglourious Basterds.

Why Glasgow, Christoph Waltz?

Filming the new Frankenstein movie in Glasgow is Christoph Waltz’s attempt to revive the horror classic, which is based on Mary Shelley’s 1818 novel.

Renowned director Guillermo del Toro is helming the upcoming movie, which stars Charles Dance, Oscar Isaac, Mia Goth, David Bradley, Jacob Elrodi, and Mia Golordi.

Glasgow Cathedral has been the site of filming operations.

It was announced earlier this week that filming had been halted at the 12th-century building.

The well-known director was pictured on the set, and actors were seen wearing Victorian attire.

Del Toro is a well-known director of films that include The Shape of Water, Hellboy, Pan’s Labyrinth, and others.
