I’m extremely excited for Guillermo del Toro’s Crimson Peak, and I was overjoyed that I got to speak to the cast at Comic-Con last week. The film takes place in a massive house that “breathes, bleeds…and remembers”, and revolves around an aspiring author who is torn between the love for her childhood friend and the temptation of a mysterious soldier.

During my conversation with stars Mia Wasikowska, Jessica Chastain, and Tom Hiddleston, they each talked about their characters in the film. Individually, Wasikowska talked about her costume choice if she were to dress up for Comic-Con, Chastain commented on Charlie Hunnam’s character, Hiddleston expressed his gratitude for his Tumblr popularity, and more. Check out the video below.

Crimson Peak opens October 16th.

Here’s the official synopsis for Crimson Peak:

When her heart is stolen by a seductive stranger, a young woman is swept away to a house atop a mountain of blood-red clay: a place filled with secrets that will haunt her forever. Between desire and darkness, between mystery and madness, lies the truth behind Crimson Peak.

 

From the imagination of director Guillermo del Toro comes a supernatural mystery starring Tom Hiddleston, Jessica Chastain, Mia Wasikowska and Charlie Hunnam.
