UPDATED: Splice - Photo of Dren or is it Herr Starr after Jesse Custer got hold of him?

Shocktillyoudrop have this photo of Dren, the human/creature created by Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley scientists in Vincenzo Natali's Splice. Actress Delphine Chanéac plays Dren.

Executive produced by Guillermo del Toro, the film tells of Elsa and Clive, two young rebellious scientists who defy legal and ethical boundaries and forge ahead with a dangerous experiment: splicing together human and animal DNA to create a new organism. Named Dren, the creature rapidly develops from a deformed female infant into a beautiful but dangerous winged human-chimera, who forges a bond with both of her creators - only to have that bond turn deadly.

UPDATE: I mentioned it in the comment but had to alter the heading for this post. That scar on Dren's head is most unfortunate (I imagine in the film it will open up into some kind of weird mouth thing like the old Sci-Fi channel link), and is very much like the scar Jesse Custer carved into Herr Starr's head in Preacher. Anyone else see what I mean?

  1. Looking a bit closer at the photo she appears to have the same unfortunate head scare that Starr from Preacher ended up with!!
