Robert Eggers’ next film is a werewolf horror set in medieval England

 

‘Werwulf’ sees him reteam with his ‘The Northman’ co-writer

The director will follow his vampire remake Nosferatu with another creature-based movie – Werwulf, a werewolf horror that he has co-written and will direct.

 

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film will be set in 13th century England, featuring dialogue true to that time period, and translation and annotations to help the audience with understanding it. It was initially conceived as a black-and-white film (as his 2019 film The Lighthouse was), but that is reportedly no longer the case.

 

Werwulf promises to be of a piece with Eggers’ existing filmography (including 17th Century horror The Witch and Iceland-set Viking tale The Northman), which often sees him exploring mythical creatures and folklore in a long-ago time period, presented as authentically as possible.

 

Eggers reunites with The Northman co-writer Sjón for the new film, which is scheduled for release in the US on Christmas Day, 2026.

 

His work was most recently on the big screen with Nosferatu, an adaptation of F.W. Murnau’s 1922 classic vampire horror starring Lily-Rose Depp, Nicholas Hoult, Willem Dafoe and Bill Skarsgård.

I'm not sure what kind of profiling I was doing in my head but a 41-year-old american who looks like this is not what I expected based on the films he’s put out.  I was imagining a crusty old brit. 

Been meaning to watch The Lighthouse. The Northmen was a trip; that’s my only exposure to Eggers so far.

that reminds me...anybody see Wolf Man? 

My daughter made me take her to see it.  I wouldn't waste the money in a theatre, but it would be okay as something to stream for free.  It startled me in a couple of places with jump scares, but overall not scary.

Even without Monica Belluci, it would still be great.

You need to see The Witch. Seriously, its good. 

If this is half as good, it will be worth seeing/spending money on. 

 

Ah-hoo, werewolves of medieval London
