Werewolf by Night was released on October 7, 2022, as part of Phase Four of the MCU. The special received positive reviews from critics, with praise for its use of practical effects, the black-and-white cinematography, performances (particularly Bernal and Donnelly), Giacchino's direction and score, and its story, with many noting its departure from previous MCU media. A fully colored version of the special, known as Werewolf by Night in Color, was released on October 20, 2023.
Plot
Following the death of
The hunt begins in a large maze on the grounds of the manor, with a captured monster that has been implanted with the Bloodstone as the hunters' quarry. Following a brief encounter with Elsa, Russell finds the monster, "
Verussa captures Russell and Elsa, places them in a cage, and uses the Bloodstone to trigger Russell's transformation into his werewolf form. Instead of killing Elsa as Verussa intended, the werewolf escapes the cage and slaughters Verussa's guards, but Verussa subdues him using the Bloodstone. Elsa also escapes, kills the two remaining hunters, and stops Verussa from killing the werewolf. As she attempts to approach him, the werewolf attacks Elsa, but spares her upon recognizing her and leaves the manor. A furious Verussa tries to shoot Elsa, but is incinerated by Ted, who then leaves to find Russell while Elsa takes possession of the manor and the Bloodstone. The next day, Russell awakens in the forest in his human form with Ted watching over him, and is pleased to learn that Elsa is safe.
Cast
- Jack Russell / Werewolf by Night:
A monster hunter who has been afflicted with a curse that turns him into a werewolf.[1] Bernal was intrigued by "the idea of the whole tapestry of a life" for Russell and what turning into a werewolf meant for him.[2] To prepare for the role, Bernal read about werewolf mythology and half-human creatures from various cultures around the world, as well as reading comics featuring the character and watching older horror films.[3] It initially took Bernal four hours to get into the werewolf costume and make-up, with the timing becoming "quite fast" by the end of filming.[4] For the werewolf's make-up, Giacchino called it "incredibly important" that Russell, who Giacchino felt had lived for a long time and has outlived his family, had some connection to his history and family and a way to be reminded "of who he was and where he came from, and what was important".[5] - Ulysses Bloodstone's estranged daughter who dislikes her family's tradition of hunting monsters.[6] Donnelly was drawn to the character's fighting capability and being able to do the stunt work associated with her action scenes.[7] Director Michael Giacchino did not want the MCU version of the character to be hyper-sexualized like the comics version is, nor to have her wield guns. He continued, "I wanted her to be badass, of course, but I wanted her to be smart, I wanted her to be vulnerable, I just wanted her to be a real person", which he believed Donnelly embodied "in spades".[8]

Development
The
By August 2021, Marvel Studios was developing a Halloween-themed
That September, Marvel Studios officially revealed the special, titled Werewolf by Night.
Writing
Heather Quinn and Peter Cameron co-wrote the screenplay, from a story by Quinn;[40][41] Quinn previously wrote for the Marvel Studios Disney+ series Hawkeye (2021) and Cameron wrote for WandaVision (2021) and Moon Knight (2022).[40] Quinn was asked to pitch for the special while she was working on set of Hawkeye in early 2021. She worked closely with Giacchino to craft the story of the special.[42]
Giacchino said the special was inspired by
Giacchino had assumed Werewolf by Night would be rated
Giacchino has "a very specific idea" of how the special fits into the MCU that he used as a personal reference while making the special, but had not discussed it with Marvel Studios.
Casting
A search for a male Latino actor in their 30s to portray the lead role in the special was underway by the end of August 2021,
Design
Maya Shimoguchi served as the production designer, having previously worked on Hawkeye. Prior to that, she also served as the supervising art director for the MCU film Thor (2011).[57] Shimoguchi created "a richly textured environment" out of concrete for the rotunda and garden that evoked film noir.[58]: 4 The fresco in the hallway of Bloodstone Manor that referenced the history of monsters in the MCU was inspired by the Bayeux Tapestry.[59]: 19:20–20:22
For the werewolf design in the special, Giacchino enjoyed being able to see an actor's face and eyes in the designs for older films such as Werewolf of London (1935) since they "kept the human qualities", with Werewolf by Night looking more like Larry Talbot / The Wolf Man from The Wolf Man than a more monster-like design created through CGI in more modern films.[37] Mayes C. Rubeo served as the costume designer, after doing so for Thor: Ragnarok (2017), WandaVision (2021) and Thor: Love and Thunder (2022).[58]: 4
Filming
Filming was expected to begin in late March 2022 at
Man-Thing was realized through a combination of actor Carey Jones in a practical suit, animatronics, and practical and CGI effects.
Post-production
Jeffrey Ford served as the editor for the special, after previously doing so for prior MCU media.
Music
Giacchino also scored the special in addition to directing,
Two "live-to-picture" performances occurred in October 2023, with the Minnesota Orchestra on October 4 and the National Symphony Orchestra on October 21. The first half of the performance examined old horror films and how music was utilized with them, while the second half saw the orchestras performing the Werewolf by Night score live to a screening of the special.[72]
Marketing
The
Release
Werewolf by Night was released on Disney+ on October 7, 2022.[31] A special screening occurred at Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas on September 25, 2022,[37] and at Hollywood Forever Cemetery on October 6 as part of a Disney+ Halloween-themed event called "Hallowstream" alongside the WandaVision episode "All-New Halloween Spooktacular!" (2021).[80] An additional screening occurred on October 13, 2022, at the New Beverly Cinema, with the special being presented on 35 mm movie film.[81] It is part of Phase Four of the MCU.[82] Werewolf by Night was made available on Hulu from September 15 until October 31, 2023, as part of its "Huluween" programming.[83][84][85]
Reception
Audience viewership
According to Whip Media's TV Time, Werewolf by Night was the top streaming film for viewers in the United States for the week ending October 9, 2022,[86] the second-most streamed for the week ending October 16,[87] the third-most for the week ending October 23,[88] and the sixth-most for the week ending October 30.[89]
Critical response
The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported an 89% approval rating, with an average score of 7.5/10, based on 111 reviews. The website's critics consensus reads: "A spooky yarn told with taut economy, Werewolf by Night is a standout Marvel entry that proves Michael Giacchino as atmospheric and skilled a director as he is a composer."[90] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the special a score of 69 out of 100 based on 17 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[91]
Jordan Moreau from Variety called Werewolf by Night "a triumphant first effort at losing the capes and spandex and delving into more genre territory for Marvel" and enjoyed the introduction of Russell and Bloodstone to the MCU, particularly noting Man-Thing's appearance which he called the "MVP" of the special, though felt the other characters were forgettable. Moreau was not as keen on the look of the werewolf, wishing it was more "intimidating or hulking" as creatures from other monster films.[92] Writing for The Hollywood Reporter, Daniel Feinberg said, "At only 52 minutes and decidedly light on plot and supporting characters, it's a slight but fairly amusing thing, elevated above being a mere exercise in style by the lead performances from Gael Garcia Bernal and Laura Donnelly." He applauded the design of Bloodstone Manor and the "vintage spooky homages" but wished Giacchino and White had "pushed the extremes of the aesthetic even more" than they did. Feinberg called Giacchino's score "the standout element that ties everything together".[93] In his review for Rolling Stone, David Fear said "Werewolf by Night feels less like a franchise detour than a fun day trip into previously untrampled genre territory." He continued that Giacchino's direction had "a great sense of how to sustain a mood without losing momentum" and praised the cinematography and Russell's werewolf transformation.[94]
Chris Evangelista of /Film gave Werewolf by Night a 7 out of 10, describing the television special as "a quick, violent, funny monster movie homage, and it's perfect for Halloween." He praised the use of practical effects for the werewolf's portrayal as opposed to CGI and the black-and-white cinematography styles.[6] Germain Lussier at Gizmodo described the special as "a beautiful, over-the-top, entertaining short that would work even if it had nothing to do with Marvel". He did feel the pace of the special prevented being able to fully take in all the characters and encounters presented.[1] Marisa Mirabal of IndieWire gave the special "B+", enjoying the design work of Shimoguchi and White, Giacchino's "larger-than-life score", and the use of practical effects. Though she was impressed by the balance of violence and comedy in the special, along with a "tight and concise" storyline, she noted that because of its short run time, "the characters [were] not able to be fully developed and explored".[57]

Director by Night
In September 2022, a documentary special for Werewolf by Night was announced from Marvel Studios Unscripted Content and Michael Giacchino's brother Anthony,[99] who served as the writer and director.[100][101] The documentary, titled Director by Night, goes behind the scenes at the making of Werewolf by Night and explores Michael Giacchino's style, vision, and dream for directing, and includes 8 mm film footage Giacchino shot in his childhood.[102][99] Director by Night was released on Disney+ on November 4, 2022,[102] marketed with the "Marvel Studios Special Presentation" branding.[100]
Werewolf by Night in Color
A colored version of the special, Werewolf by Night in Color, was revealed in September 2023.[83][84] Discussions and tests for releasing a colored version began as production was finishing on the original black-and-white version in 2022, with Giacchino noting that the look of the special with color was considered during filming in the event they were able to release it that way. Each scene of Werewolf by Night was examined for its color adjustments, ensuring the changes per scene created a unified look. The creatives utilized the film scan of the special to reexamine its color and ensure the choices they made matched that film look. Giacchino likened the release to the horror films released by Hammer Film Productions that had "saturated colors and stark lighting". He was concerned with how the full color release would impact the end of the special, which sees the special change from black-and-white to color as Elsa brings "color to a place that was for years a dreary part of her life", but stated he "still felt the same feelings" calling it "just a different experience".[72] The use of blood in the special did not have to be altered in terms of the amount seen or color;[5] this had been a concern when releasing the black-and-white version in regards to how it would affect the special's rating.[5][49]
Werewolf by Night in Color was screened in North Hollywood on October 15, 2023, along with a discussion with Giacchino,[103] and was released on Disney+ as part of its "Hallowstream" programming on October 20, 2023.[83][84] Giacchino hoped to created a 35 mm version of the In Color special as had been done with the original.[5]
Future
In September 2022, Gay said that Werewolf by Night would begin to explore a variety of monsters that have existed in the MCU for centuries, such as artwork featured in the special. Furthermore, he stated that the idea was to have such monsters appear in future projects.[104] Gay also explained the special's ending intentionally left Russell and Bloodstone "totally changed" and in "a space that they did not expect to find themselves in", and felt it was the beginning for their characters but was uncertain if they would return.[105] Feige said the special would introduce a part of the MCU that would become "quite important" to its future.[106] In October 2023, while clarifying there were no immediate plans for further projects, Giacchino stated he had "crazy and nuts" ideas for additional stories with these characters.[5]
