From Deadline:

[quote="MIKE FLEMING"]"We are both writing chapters. Chuck has 100 pages so far. I’ve done 70. But I’m not halfway through my process and I won’t be done with my side until the week before we start At the Mountains of Madness. I’m still hoping to shoot in June. We still have a big budget presentation for Universal, but I’m really hopeful. The stuff looks just great.â€

Of all the projects that Del Toro has his hands in, I want this and Hellboy 3 to get started and finished as soon as possible. I just think there's sort of a brief window for these two and I want them done.

The New Yorker has published an extensive piece on Guillermo del Toro written by Dale Zalewski and culled from several hands-on interactions and interviews spread over the past several years. An impressive piece of work for fans of the artist, the article also touches on a number of projects that will hopefully soon see the light of day, including At the Mountains of Madness and Frankenstein.

In addition to comments from del Toro, the piece features Zalewski's own descriptions of maquettes and production sketches at various stages of development.

"In accordance with Mary Shelley’s description," he writes about one of the Frankenstein designs, " the head appeared to have been stolen from a cadaver: there was exposed sinew around the jaw, and the cheekbones looked ready to poke through the scrim of flesh. Most appallingly, the Creature lacked a nose; a single bridge bone protruded over an oval breathing hole. Torres had been etching deep furrows into the Creature’s forehead, and shaved bits of clay were scattered on his desk, like clippings on a barbershop floor."

Likewise, Zalewski was witness to test footage for the as-of-yet-not-greenlit H.P. Lovecraft adaptation, At the Mountains of Madness. Among many descriptions of the evolving creature design is the following excerpt:

I don't think it's an apt comparison to compare him to Mel Gibson, that guy apparently is a hateful relic of something that might have been once human. Tom is a lil nutty, but no more so than that overly optimistic guy that lives on your block or something. Gibson's kind generally ends up in prison.
