Robert Eggers is reteaming with Focus Features for his next film 'Werwulf,' a werewolf horror feature that he co-wrote.

However, if there’s another thing we know Eggers loves, it’s meticulous historical research, which will again come into play for Werwulf. Sources tell THR that “the story is set in 13th century England” and the script “features dialogue that was true to the time period and has translations and annotations for those uninitiated in Old English.

Eggers cowrote the script with his “The Northman” scribe Sjón. Like “Nosferatu,” “Werwulf” will be getting a holiday release; the film is set to premiere Christmas Day 2026.

Some are flops, some are passable, some are awesome, and, after Nosferatu, Robert Eggers announced his werewolf movie. The choice of the title is significant, pulling directly from the Old English term for "werewolf" ('wer' meaning man and 'wulf' meaning wolf).

Robert Eggers' next movie will take him to 13th-century England and feature a werewolf instead of a vampire. Should we welcome back the Dark Universe?

Robert Eggers is reteaming with Focus Features after the phenomenal success of Nosferatu becoming the studio’s second highest grossing movie stateside with $90.5M behind Downton Abbey, and that is with the new genre movie Werwulf.

Continuing its relationship with filmmaker Robert Eggers, Focus Features will produce and finance his next film, "Werwulf."
