Guillermo del Toro's upcoming project The Shape of Water gets a December 8th release date in the US, placing it right in the middle of Hollywood's award nomination season. It’s said to take him back to his more intimate productions like Pan's Labyrinth instead of the bigger blockbusters his done recently. And perhaps that's a good thing as Pan's Labyrinth has won Academy Awards for Best Art Direction, Makeup, and Cinematography.
The Shape of Water is described as an "other-worldly fairy tale" set in the Cold War. It stars Sally Hawkins as Elisa who works at a top-secret government facility that houses a classified experiment that comes in the form of an "aquatic man." The man will be played by Doug Jones and Hawkins's co-worker will be played by Octavia Spencer.
