That said, as someone who has followed Eggers from the very beginning of his brief yet incredible career up to this point, I have some thoughts about his upcoming horror movie as well as some questions that I need to just talk out.

Eggers cowrote the script with his “The Northman” scribe Sjón. Like “Nosferatu,” “Werwulf” will be getting a holiday release; the film is set to premiere Christmas Day 2026.

Robert Eggers is reteaming with Focus Features after the phenomenal success of Nosferatu becoming the studio’s second highest grossing movie stateside with $90.5M behind Downton Abbey, and that is with the new genre movie Werwulf.
