Adrien Nicholas Brody was born in Woodhaven, Queens, New York, the only child of retired history professor Elliot Brody and Hungarian-born photographer Sylvia Plachy. He accompanied his mother on assignments for the Village Voice, and credits her with making him feel comfortable in front of the camera. Adrien attended the American Academy of Dramatic Arts and LaGuardia High School for the Performing Arts in New York. Despite a strong performance in The Thin Red Line (1998), time constraints forced the director to edit out much of Adrien's part. In spite of his later work with Spike Lee and Barry Levinson, he never became the star many expected he would become until Roman Polanski called on him to play a celebrated Jewish pianist in Nazi-occupied Warsaw. He pulled off a brilliant performance in The Pianist (2002), drawing on the heritage and rare dialect of his Polish-born grandmother, as well as his father, who lost family members during the Holocaust, and his mother, who fled Communist Hungary as a child during the 1956 uprising against the Soviet Union.

This story takes place shortly after the events of "Monster's Rising : Enter a New World." Wilhelmina Harker, although infected by Dracula at the end of the 19th century, continues to fight for the light from within the darkness. One evening, while investigating a Satanic cult, she frees their prisoner, Lawrence Talbot, the most powerful werewolf in the world, unable to return to human form but capable of controlling himself. They're then joined by two creatures who have recently gained worldwide notoriety : Princess Ahmanet, aka the Mummy, and Gill-Man. These two have recently reunited after sensing ominous signs for the future. Together, they free a former monster hunter, now half-mad but still highly skilled, who is being held in an asylum but knows a great deal about demons: Leroy Jackson, aka Spring-Heeled Jack. Upon freeing him, they encounter a deformed human, cursed for centuries, but fighting for good : Quasimodo, aka the Hunchback of Notre Dame. But above all, there's the one who contacted them all telepathically to fight against evil : a very powerful, shape-shifting half-demon who calls himself the Observer. Despite their doubts, they must all work together, because they're the only ones who can stop the demons from bringing total Apocalypse to Earth !
