#FIRSTLOOK: ROBERT EGGERS’ “NOSFERATU” COMING CHRISTMAS 2024
Focus Features will bring Robert Eggers’ (The VVitch, The Lighthouse) highly anticipated horror film NOSFERATU to U.S. audiences on December 25, 2024, making it a prime holiday season release. Screenplay and Directed by Eggers, the film features an all-star cast that includes Bill Skarsgård, Nicholas Hoult, Lily-Rose Depp, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Emma Corrin, Ralph Ineson, Simon McBurney and Willem Dafoe.
Eggers also serves as a producer alongside Chris Columbus, Eleanor Columbus, Jeff Robinov, and John Graham.
NOSFERATU marks Focus Features’ ongoing collaboration with Eggers following the 2022 release of the viking epic THE NORTHMAN. The film also reunites Eggers with veteran producer Chris Columbus who is credited as executive producer on THE WITCH and THE LIGHTHOUSE.
Peter Kujawski, Chairman of Focus Features, stated, “The audacious filmmaking of Robert Eggers is always a gift for fans, and we can promise that his Nosferatu is planning quite the Christmas feast.”
Robert Eggers’ NOSFERATU is a gothic tale of obsession between a haunted young woman and the terrifying vampire infatuated with her, causing untold horror in its wake.
Focus is distributing NOSFERATU in the U.S. with Universal Pictures International handling international distribution.

#GIVEAWAY: ENTER TO WIN “THE WITCH” ON BLU-RAY COMBO PACK
Elevation Pictures + Mr. Will want to give Readers a chance to win horrific THE WITCH on Blu-ray Combo Pack!
Synopsis:
New England, 1630: William and Katherine lead a devout Christian life, homesteading on the edge of an impassible wilderness, with five children. When their newborn son mysteriously vanishes and their crops fail, the family begins to turn on one another. In his debut feature, writer/director Robert Eggers painstakingly designs an authentic re-creation of New England—generations before the 1692 trials in Salem—evoking the alluring and terrifying power of the timeless witch myth. Told through the eyes of Thomasin, the teenage daughter (in a star-making performance by Anya Taylor-Joy), and supported by haunting camera work and an ominous score, The Witch is a chilling portrait of a family unraveling within their own fears and anxieties, leaving them prey for an inescapable evil.

#TIFF15: DAY 9 SPOTTINGS – JULIE DELPY, DANY BOON, ANYA TAYLOR-JOY, ROBERT EGGERS
We’re into TIFF‘s final weekend and spotted a few notable names in the City today. Tomorrow the Closing Night Gala, Mr. Right will commence at both the Princess of Wales Theatre and Roy Thomson Hall and we expect to see both Sam Rockwell and Anna Kendrick out for that.
See who we saw today!
Julie Delpy. Making an extremely rare visit to the City today, Actor/Director/Writer Julie Delpy was spotted out in a foot cast. She tells me she broke her foot recently and being the trooper she is, that wasn’t enough to stop her from promoting her latest, Lolo. You know her best for hers, Ethan Hawke and Richard Linklater‘s Before Sunrise Trilogy.
Dany Boon. This French-Comedian also stars in Lolo opposite Delpy and was just charming and as he greeted fans earlier, he let them know he also was recording the interaction for a French program.

Anya Taylor-Joy. This up-and-coming Actress is outstanding in hotly-buzzed horror, The Witch. She tells me that she loves Toronto and actually filmed that Movie locally.
Robert Eggers. This talented Filmmaker makes his feature debut with The Witch, which (pardon the pun) has critics and audiences all talking.
