However,aWolf Manmovie was in development at Universal since 2014.
Development on this iteration ofWolf Mandid not make it too far by all accounts.
No director was ever hired to make the film.
This all came to a halt afterThe Mummy’s release.
Universal made it clear what direction the cinematic universe was heading in withThe Mummy.
It’s striking how differentWolf Manis compared toThe Mummy.

The new monster movie might as well be the exact opposite in every way.
There is no sequel set up or universe building inWolf Man’s ending.
It’s the antithesis of what the Dark Universe was going for then.

There is no chance this version ofWolf Manwould have been made under the Dark Universe banner.
AndWolf Mantakes swings a bigger franchise installment might not have.
Importantly, this is all being done without audiences or filmmakers worrying about how a film connects to others.

These movies work alone and do not need a big team-up crossover like the Dark Universe so desperately wanted.
That is far from the only Universal Monster movie still in development.
That could include rethinking whether a Dark Universe should happen but just in a new way.
