In Wolf Man (2025), the story follows Alexander Drake, a reclusive historian turned reluctant hero, who inherits an ancient family curse that transforms him into a werewolf under the light of the full moon. The film opens with Alexander discovering hidden diaries in his ancestral mansion, which reveal the origins of his curse—a pact made centuries ago with a mysterious entity to save his family from ruin. As the full moon approaches, Alexander’s transformation becomes uncontrollable, unleashing a primal rage that endangers those closest to him.
Throughout the film, Alexander battles not only his monstrous alter ego but also a secretive cult that worships the creature, believing it to be a divine instrument of change. In a series of chilling confrontations, the cult kidnaps his estranged love, Elena, in an attempt to harness the werewolf’s power for their own ends. Desperate to save Elena and break the curse, Alexander seeks the guidance of an enigmatic witch doctor, who reveals that only an act of true sacrifice can end his torment.
In the gripping climax, Alexander confronts the cult during a turbulent full moon night. In a bittersweet twist, he manages to rescue Elena and, by willingly taking on fatal wounds in his wolf form, breaks the ancient pact. The film ends ambiguously with Elena cradling Alexander’s still form under the moonlight, leaving audiences questioning whether the curse has truly been lifted or if its legacy will continue.
