In celebration of the 200th anniversary of Mary Shelley's world-famous novel, "Frankenstein" makes its way back to cinemas. In this new adaptation, Olivier Award winners Benedict Cumberbatch ("12 Years A Slave," "Sherlock") and Jonny Lee Miller ("Elementary" on CBS, "Trainspotting") alternate in the roles of Victor Frankenstein and the Creature.
