Guillermo del Toro already has enough projects, but he revealed that his dream was adapting of “The Count of Monte Cristo” as a “gothic-western” titled “The Left Hand of Darkness.”
Speaking to MTV News, del Toro said that he hopes to one day helm a reinvention of classic novel by Alexandre Dumas.
“It’s a gothic-western retelling of “The Count of Monte Cristo,” and I co-wrote it with Kitt Carson and Matthew Robbins around 1993 to 1998. I wrote a lot of that during the kidnapping of my father, so it’s of a lot of rage,” referring to the 72 days his father was held in Mexico.
