EXCLUSIVE: Robert Eggers and his Lighthouse starWillem Dafoe have found their next project to collaborate on as Dafoe is in talks to join Eggers’ Nosferatu movie at Focus Features. Lily Rose-Depp, Bill Skarsgard and Nicholas Hoult are already on board with Eggers writing and directing. Jeff Robinov, John Graham, Robert Eggers, Chris Columbus and Eleanor Columbus are producing.
In the new reimagining, Nosferatu 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. Focus had no comment on the project. It is unknown who Dafoe will be playing.
Not only does the project reunite Eggers and Dafoe, who worked together on The Lighthouse and The Northman, the project is a full circle moment for Dafoe who earned an Oscar nomination playing the Nosferatu creature in Shadow of a Vampire.
Dafoe’s upcoming projects include Yorgos Lanthimos’ Poor Things as well as Lanthimos’ And as well as Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City and The Man In The Basement. He also has Vasilis Katsoupis’ Inside and Walter Hill’s Dead For A Dollar. His recent projects include Robert Eggers’ The Northman, Guillermo del Toro’s Nightmare Alley and Spider-Man: No Way Home.
He is repped by Circle of Confusion and WME.
