Christmas is just four months away, and so is Robert Eggers’ highly anticipated remake of Nosferatu, set to premiere on December 25, 2024.

A new image from the film has been released (see above), with more details expected soon.

Bill Skarsgård stars as Nosferatu/Count Orlok, while the film features a stellar cast including Willem Dafoe, Nicholas Hoult, Emma Corrin, Lily-Rose Depp, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Simon McBurney, and Ralph Ineson.

Eggers, known for The Witch and The Northman, directs and writes the screenplay. He also serves as a producer alongside Chris Columbus, Eleanor Columbus, Jeff Robinov, and John Graham.

The 1922 silent film Nosferatu, directed by F.W. Murnau, tells the story of Count Orlok, a vampire who becomes infatuated with a real-estate agent’s wife while trying to purchase a house in Germany. The film was an unofficial adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, which almost led to its complete destruction. Werner Herzog later directed his own version of the classic tale in 1979.

Francesco Monti

Born in December, the darkest and coldest month of the year, Francesco Monti developed a passion for all things horror from an early age. A lifelong horror aficionado, his love for films, books, and the darker side of storytelling eventually led him into filmmaking, with a focus on horror, thriller, and sci-fi. In May 2022, Francesco turned that lifelong passion into GoreCulture — a platform created not only to bring horror fans closer to the films, stories, and culture they love, but to give a voice and valuable exposure to talented filmmakers, creators, and artists whose work deserves to be discovered, regardless of how established they are.
