Caught by a fan on Twitter, Eggers teased, "It's a medieval werewolf movie. It's also the darkest thing I've ever written, by far." Considering this is coming from the man who turned Bill Skarsgård into a character that could give Pennywise a run for his money, we're unsure if we even want to believe him.

Nosferatu director Robert Eggers is currently developing a werewolf movie titled Werwulf , and it’s a film project that I’m very curious and excited about. The story is said to be set in 13th century England,

It's official. Robert Eggers is a bloody good director after legendary filmmaker Martin Scorsese praised his recent trip to Transylvania with Nosferatu.

Exclusive: Jarin Blaschke confirms he and Robert Eggers have begun researching the look of their medieval werewolf movie, and that the “primary candidate” has never been used in a film.

While Scorsese isn’t quite known for horror, Eggers has become a modern master of the genre. Eggers, who previously helmed “The Witch,” “The Northman,” and “The Lighthouse,” announced his fifth film “ Werwulf ” in January 2025.

Martin Scorsese is one of the greatest living directors, helming masterpieces like Taxi Driver, Goodfellas, and Raging Bull, just to name a few. Scorsese has helmed incredible films of his own, but he's also passionate about other films as well.
