Focus Features‘ second movie with filmmaker Robert Eggers, Nosferatu, will be hitting cinemas on Wednesday, Dec. 25, 2024.
That’s good news for the year-end holiday period, which is still scant of product, the only other wide entries being on Dec. 20, 2024, Disney’s live-action sequel Mufasa and Paramount’s Sonic the Hedgehog 3.
Peter Kujawski, Chairman of Focus Features beamed, “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.”
Written and directed by 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. Pic stars Bill Skarsgård, Nicholas Hoult, Lily-Rose Depp, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Emma Corrin, Ralph Ineson, Simon McBurney and Willem Dafoe.
Eggers produced alongside Chris Columbus and Eleanor Columbus (Maiden Voyage), Jeff Robinov, and John Graham. Columbus was the EP on Eggers’ The Witch and The Lighthouse.
Focus previously co-financed and released Eggers’ Viking epic The Northman with New Regency which grossed $70M WW. Universal International is hanlding overseas distribution of Nosferatu.
Focus’ slate includes Alexander Payne’s The Holdovers currently in theaters, along with upcoming titles Drive-Away Dolls from Ethan Coen and Tricia Cooke, Zelda William’s feature directorial debut Lisa Frankenstein, written by Diablo Cody, as well as Back to Black about the life and music of Amy Winehouse from director Sam Taylor-Johnson, Conclave from Edward Berger, Jeff Nichols’ The Bikeriders, Baltasar Kormakur’s Touch, and Goran Stolevski’s newest feature, Housekeeping for Beginners, among others.
