‘Werwulf’ – Focus Features Chairman Promises a Robert Eggers Horror Movie On a “Whole Other Level”
The trailer for Robert Eggers’ (The Witch, Nosferatu) new nightmare Werwulf is no doubt headed our way soon, but in the meantime we’ve got an exciting tease from Focus Features.
Focus Features chairman Peter Kujawski sat down for a new interview with Letterboxd, and he promises that Robert Eggers’ next horror movie is “on a whole other level.”
“I promise you, Werwulf is on a whole other level,” Kujawski teases. “No one has seen a movie that looks or feels like this movie does.”
“To deliver the scares that this movie does, but also deliver a really, really intimate portrait of the experience of a werewolf—the emotional experience of a man going through that curse. It’s not just a plot device for Rob. It is a question of the foundational nature of man in the world,” Kujawski continues. “That monsters can exist, and the horror of living is so felt and present in this movie, that I really think audiences are gonna respond on a whole other level when they discover what he’s made.
“Like all of his films, this has high-level terror and anxiety, but it’s done in a way that gives you these weird shafts of light and hope.”
Set in 13th century England, Werwulf sees a mysterious creature stalk the land as local folklore becomes a terrifying reality. The film hits theaters on December 25 via Focus Features.
Robert Eggers recently teased, “It’s the darkest thing I’ve ever written. By far.”
Eggers directs from a script he penned with his The Northman co-writer Sjón.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Nosferatu), Lily-Rose Depp (Nosferatu), Willem Dafoe (The Lighthouse), Ralph Ineson (The Witch), and Bodhi Rae Breathnach (Hamnet) star.
