Focus Features Werwulf is coming. Focus Features will release the highly anticipated film on December 25 in theaters, and they’ve just provided an official first look on Thursday (June 25). The Robert Eggers written and directed film, co-written by Sjón , stars Aaron Taylor-Johnson , Willem Dafoe , and Lily-Rose Depp Here’s the synopsis so far: “Witness Robert Eggers ’ most visceral and haunting experience yet. Focus Features presents WERWULF , a harrowing tale of devotion, damnation and the devil within.” Around this time last year, Aaron and Lily-Rose were announced as being attached to the project. Aaron , Lily-Rose and the director previously worked together on Nosferatu and are set to work on their second project together. Robert and Sjón previously co-wrote The Northman . Check out the first look above! “I wanted to follow up Nosferatu with another horror movie. I had written something that was a bit too obscure. So I thought, Let me be sensible and make a werewolf movie. [ Laughs. ] I wanted to do it in the UK because that’s where I live now,” he told Esquire. “Backpedaling away from influences and mythologies that do and don’t have to do with the film, the cool thing about going back into the past is that you can kind of hit a reset button. So all the clichés of being bitten by a werewolf and silver bullets and a lot of the stuff that has become almost campy doesn’t exist in the mythology of this movie. So you don’t need to have seen Lon Cheney Jr. ’s The Wolf Man or An American Werewolf in London to get what’s going on here.” “Part of this being a horror movie is that it’s about mystery and suspense and the slow-burn, uncomfortable vibes that lead us into darkness and ultimately horror. I think the less we know, the better,” he added. In April, Aaron ‘s new movie Fuze was released in limited release .
