Robert Eggers (The Witch, The Lighthouse, The Northman) is directing a remake of the horror classic Nosferatu, and Deadline reports that Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Kraven the Hunter) has joined the cast. Additionally, Simon McBurney (The Conjuring 2) and Ralph Ineson (The Witch) will co-star, with Deadline’s report noting that production on the film is now underway.
Willem Dafoe, Bill Skarsgard, Nicholas Hoult, Emma Corrin and Lily-Rose Depp will also star, with Robert Eggers making Nosferatu as his next movie for Focus Features.
Bill Skarsgard will reportedly be playing Nosferatu/Count Orlok in the film.
Deadline’s report indicates, “In the new reimagining, the pic is a gothic tale of obsession between a haunted young woman (Depp) in 19th century Germany and the ancient Transylvanian vampire (Skarsgard) who stalks her, bringing untold horror with him.”
Eggers (The Witch, The Northman) is directing and he also wrote the script.
F.W. Murnau directed the original 1922 version of Nosferatu, while fellow German filmmaker Werner Herzog notably directed his own version of the classic tale back in 1979.
