  You never know how the movie's going to be, but from what we've done so far, which, mind you, hasn't been very much, what I would say to fans is that at least you know that the guy who's doing the makeup in the movie is coming from the same place they are - as a fan. — Rich Baker, The Wolf Man Make-up Artist — Entertainment Weekly
