Nosferatu is a 2024 American supernatural horror film written and directed by Robert Eggers. It is a remake of F. W. Murnau's 1922 silent film Nosferatu, itself inspired by Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula. The film stars Bill Skarsgård as the titular character and Nicholas Hoult and Lily-Rose Depp as the married Hutter couple, with Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Emma Corrin, Ralph Ineson, Simon McBurney, and Willem Dafoe in supporting roles.

Development on the film began in 2015 when Eggers planned to make it his second film, describing it as a passion project, but he eventually opted to delay its production. Skarsgård and Depp were cast as leads in September 2022. Filming took place primarily at Barrandov Studios in Prague, Czech Republic between February and May 2023.

Nosferatu had its world premiere in Berlin, Germany on December 2, 2024, and was theatrically released in the United States by Focus Features on December 25, 2024, and internationally by Universal Pictures on January 1, 2025. The film received generally positive reviews from critics and has grossed over $100 million worldwide.

Plot

Under the cover of the night, a young girl named Ellen weeps as she prays, desperately seeking solace from an unseen spirit to ease her deep loneliness. Her plea is answered by a mysterious malevolent entity who attacks her, something Ellen initially finds pleasurable but then leaves her convulsing in a seizure.

Years later in the winter of 1838, Ellen lives in the town of Wisborg, Germany, with her husband, Thomas Hutter, a solicitor and estate agent. Hoping to achieve financial security, Thomas accepts a commission from his employer, Herr Knock, to sell Schloss Grünewald, a decrepit stately home in Wisborg, to the reclusive and eccentric Count Orlok. Unbeknownst to Thomas, Knock has arranged this as part of an occult pact with Orlok.

Ellen becomes fearful and asks Thomas to stay with her, confessing that, before their wedding, she dreamed she married Death himself, with only corpses in attendance, and found herself enjoying it. He dismisses her fears and departs for Orlok's castle in Transylvania's Carpathian Mountains, leaving her in the care of a wealthy friend, Friedrich Harding, and his wife Anna. Upon arriving in Transylvania, Thomas is shunned by the local Romani peasantry for associating with Orlok. That night, he witnesses them impaling what they claim is a vampire's corpse with an iron stake; the corpse jolts in pain and vomits blood.

Arriving at the castle the next evening, Thomas is greeted by the impatient and menacing Orlok, who dines with him and insists on finalizing the purchase of Schloss Grünewald immediately. Orlok disregards Thomas's inquiry about the villagers and what he witnessed, and when Thomas cuts his thumb on a bread knife, Orlok mesmerizes him and drinks his blood, revealing himself to be a vampire. The next night, Orlok takes Thomas's locket, which contains a lock of Ellen's hair, and has him sign a mysterious document written in an occult script. Haunted by nightmares, and seduced by Orlok in Ellen's form, a weakened and feverish Thomas demands to return home, but Orlok insists he stay until he is no longer ill. Later, Thomas finds Orlok sleeping in his coffin and attempts to kill him with a pick, but Orlok awakens and attacks Thomas, feeding on his blood, and leaving him for dead. The next morning, fleeing the Count's wolves, Thomas falls from a window into a river while escaping. He is found and nursed back to health by Orthodox nuns at a nearby church, who urge him to stay and recover, but he rushes back to Wisborg to protect Ellen. Meanwhile, Orlok sails for Wisborg with a crate of grave dirt and plague-infested rats, killing the ship's crew along the way.

Back in Wisborg, Ellen suffers from bouts of sleepwalking and seizures, which Wilhelm Sievers, her doctor, struggles to treat. As her condition worsens, Sievers consults his mentor, Albin Eberhart von Franz, a brilliant scientist ostracized in Switzerland for his occult beliefs. Von Franz deduces that Ellen is under the spell of the Nosferatu, a demonic, plague-bearing vampire. Friedrich remains skeptical, believing her symptoms stem from anxiety over Thomas's absence. Meanwhile, Knock is institutionalized after a gleeful rampage, and both he and Ellen prophesize Orlok's impending arrival. Sievers and Von Franz realize the two are influenced by the same malevolent spirit. Searching Knock's office, they discover that Orlok is the Nosferatu.

Thomas returns to Wisborg as Orlok's arrival brings the plague. Knock escapes custody, kills a porter, and escorts Orlok to Schloss Grünewald. Orlok appears to Ellen in a dream, taunting her by claiming he tricked Thomas into signing divorce papers. He warns her that she must approve the divorce within two nights and reaffirm the pact she made when she summoned him as a child, or he will kill Thomas and let the plague consume Wisborg. Thomas is shocked by the revelation of Ellen's past relations with Orlok, and in turn she chastises him for his weakness and for letting himself be ravished by the count. Then, surprising him, she proceeds to violently engage him in sex for Orlok to see, and he in revenge, brutally murders Anna and her young daughters to demonstrate his power. After the funeral, Von Franz, who from his occult research theorizes that the Nosferatu can only truly be destroyed through the willing sacrifice of a fair maiden, and Ellen hatch a plan to trap Orlok and keep Thomas apart from her (to save his life), as she has chosen to sacrifice herself to save the city. A little while later, a grief-stricken Friedrich dies of the plague while committing necrophilia with his wife's corpse. Upon finding Friedrich's body, Sievers, Thomas, and Von Franz proceed to burn the family mausoleum.

Von Franz rallies Thomas and Sievers to destroy Orlok's resting place at Schloss Grünewald; Von Franz agrees to keep Thomas busy with the hunt whilst Ellen psychically summons Orlok to her chamber. The three men unexpectedly find Knock in Orlok's coffin and kill him; Von Franz proceeds to burn the crypt. However, Thomas sees the expedition was a diversion and rushes back to save Ellen. Meanwhile, Ellen and Orlok kiss, with Ellen then inviting him into her bed. Orlok feasts on her blood until sunrise, at which point the sunlight causes Orlok to shrivel up and perish. Thomas bursts into the bedroom and holds Ellen’s hand as she dies, having brought an end to Orlok and the plague.

Cast

• Bill Skarsgård as Count Orlok / Nosferatu: A mysterious nobleman and vampire who lives alone in his ruined castle, who wants to acquire a new property in Germany. He was a black magician in life until the Devil cursed him to preserve his soul in his corpse and become the Nosferatu. Sunlight is lethal to him and he can only inhabit the "cursed land" where he is buried. Based on Bram Stoker's character Count Dracula.
• Nicholas Hoult as Thomas Hutter: A kind, caring and sincere man, who feels the need to take care of his new wife Ellen Hutter, whom he loves and respects deeply.

Based on Bram Stoker's character Jonathan Harker.
• Lily-Rose Depp as Ellen Hutter: Described as a pure woman and an angelic wife who in her lonely youth sought "a guardian angel, a spirit of comfort... anything."

Production

Development

In July 2015, the remake of Nosferatu (1922) was announced with Robert Eggers writing and directing. Jay Van Hoy and Lars Knudsen were slated to produce the film for Studio 8. In November 2016, Eggers expressed surprise that the Nosferatu remake was his second planned film, saying, "It feels ugly and blasphemous and egomaniacal and disgusting for a filmmaker in my place to do Nosferatu next. I was really planning on waiting a while, but that's how fate shook out." During an interview with Den of Geek around the release of The Lighthouse (2019), Eggers revealed that although he had dedicated a lot of time to bringing the story into the 21st century, he didn't know when or if it would happen. He said that he "spent so many years and so much time, it would be a real shame if it never happened".

Script

The film is a remake of Nosferatu, following those made by F. W. Murnau in 1922 from a script by Henrik Galeen and by Werner Herzog in 1979. Nosferatu actually came about because Murnau and his producers decided to make a film about Dracula but without using Bram Stoker's novel in order to avoid paying royalties. The producers therefore changed some small details to avoid problems with the copyright holders. The film was loosely based on the book, but the names of the characters were changed. The version is set in 19th century Germany and is based on the same premise as Stoker's Dracula. After the original film's release, a lawsuit was filed against the producers of Nosferatu which resulted in an order to destroy all copies of the film, but some copies survived and were restored after the death of Stoker's widow and the subsequent expiration of the copyright.

Eggers' early fascination with Nosferatu ignited a passion for filmmaking that would shape his career. He became inspired by both Henrik Galeen's screenplay and Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula, and with high school classmate Ashley Kelly-Tata adapted the story for the stage, performing it at their school. Their production caught the eye of Edouard Langlois, who invited them to transfer it to New York's Edwin Booth Theatre.

"Vampirism and Dracula is the thing that I've been thinking about and looking at for a long time," Eggers said. "I had read Montague Summers as a teenager, and many other authors of vampire lore, but I think, until I set out to make Nosferatu, I was still too contaminated by the cinematic tropes. And so, you're infusing things you're reading with cinematic tropes that aren't there. In doing the research to write this script, I needed to be disciplined to forget what I knew. And then, you start looking at the really early vampire accounts, and you're like, 'They're not even drinking blood, they're just strangling people, or suffocating people, or fucking them to death.' And that was really interesting." The character of Orlok is partially inspired by Vlad Dracula, whom the original Dracula was named after. Inspired by Orlok being an ancient Romanian count, Eggers made the decision to have him speak a reconstructed form of the Dacian language in the film. The film also makes a nod to director Victor Sjöström's silent classic, The Phantom Carriage (1921). Eggers also explored the work of French neurologist Jean-Martin Charcot and his findings on so-called hysteria and took inspiration from Andrzej Żuławski's films Possession (1981), The Devil (1972), and The Third Part of the Night (1971).

Casting

In August 2017, actress Anya Taylor-Joy was cast, but in 2020, Eggers was asked if he and Anya Taylor-Joy still communicated about the project. In March 2022, it was revealed that singer Harry Styles was briefly attached to the role of Thomas Hutter in the film, but ultimately dropped out. Eggers initially considered several talents to play the role of Count Orlok, including Daniel Day-Lewis and Mads Mikkelsen. For a time, Willem Dafoe was slated to play the role.

Finally, on September 30, 2022, it was announced that Swedish actor Bill Skarsgård would star in the role of Count Orlok, whom Eggers had also had in mind for the film adaptation years earlier. However, before he was offered the role of the film's titular vampire, Skarsgård had originally auditioned for and been offered the role of Thomas Hutter.

The addition of actress Lily-Rose Depp, replacing Anya Taylor-Joy, was also announced on September 30, 2022. Nicholas Hoult confirmed on October 10, 2022, that he joined the cast after several negotiations, to play Thomas Hutter.

Willem Dafoe, who had previously portrayed Max Schreck/Count Orlok in Shadow of the Vampire (2000), joined the cast after having co-starred in The Lighthouse. Emma Corrin would join the cast the following month. Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Simon McBurney, and Ralph Ineson were announced as joining cast at the start of production in late February 2023. Additionally, the film features around 5,000 trained rat actors.

Filming

Principal photography began in the Czech Republic on February 20, 2023, with filming taking place at Barrandov Studios in Prague by March. Later that month, the crew was shooting on location at the 14th-century Rožmitál pod Třemšínem Castle in Rožmitál pod Třemšínem, Pernštejn Castle and Prague's Invalidovna complex, a Baroque building registered as a national landmark. Some exterior shots were captured in Corvin Castle in Romania. Filming wrapped on May 19, 2023.

The film was shot on 35mm film in color by cinematographer Jarin Blaschke, adopting a desaturated look reminiscent of 19th-century Romanticism using special filters.

To prepare for playing Count Orlok, Skarsgård lost a significant amount of weight and worked with the Icelandic opera singer Ásgerður Júníusdóttir to lower his vocal range and character, and spent up to six hours a day having prosthetic makeup applied. Skarsgård likened his experience to "conjuring pure evil." Hoult said he felt "real fear" when wolves on set had to be restrained before filming chase scenes with him. The film makes use of several custom-made props, some of which were kept by the actors after filming. Eggers gifted Depp the prop of Ellen's locket, and Hoult kept and framed Orlok's fake penis worn by Skarsgård in the film.

Soundtrack

The score is provided by British-Irish film composer and music producer Robin Carolan. Carolan made his film scoring debut in 2022, working with Eggers on the soundtrack for The Northman; on Nosferatu, he intentionally moved away from the typical horror score, focusing on capturing the story's melancholic and tragic elements.

With "Goodbye" and "Increase thy Thunders", the first two pieces of music from the film were released by Back Lot Music in late September 2024. The full soundtrack album with a total of 43 pieces of music is scheduled to be released on vinyl and two CDs by Sacred Bones Records and Waxwork Records. At the helm as conductor is British-born Daniel Pioro. Carolan and Eggers struggled to perfect their sound, a process marked by their meticulous attention to detail, which Carolan describes as "almost telepathic".

Release

Nosferatu had its world premiere on December 2, 2024 at the Zoo Palast cinema in Berlin, Germany. The film was released on December 25, 2024, in the United States by Focus Features and internationally by Universal Pictures on January 1, 2025. The film was shown in IMAX, as well as in Dolby Cinema, and in addition to those screens it received special showings in 35mm in select theaters, with an example being Grauman's Chinese Theatre in California.

Reception

Box office

As of January 5, 2025, Nosferatu has grossed $69.4 million in the United States and Canada, and $31 million in other territories, for a worldwide gross of $100.4 million.

In the United States and Canada, Nosferatu was released alongside A Complete Unknown, Babygirl, and The Fire Inside, and was originally projected to gross around $25 million from 2,992 theaters in its five-day opening weekend. After making $11.55 million on its first day and $7.6 million on its second, estimates were raised to $42 million. It went on to debut to $21.7 million in its opening weekend (and a total of $40.8 million over the five days), finishing in third behind Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Mufasa: The Lion King.

Critical response

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 86% of 248 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 8.2/10. The website's consensus reads: "Marvelously orchestrated by director Robert Eggers, Nosferatu is a behemoth of a horror film that is equal parts repulsive and seductive." Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 78 out of 100, based on 54 critics, indicating "generally favorable" reviews. Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "B–" on an A+ to F scale.

The Hollywood Reporter's David Rooney praised the direction, screenplay, and performances, calling the film "exciting, repulsive and beautiful", and added that "It's thrilling to experience a movie so assured in the way it builds and sustains fear, so hypnotically scary as it grabs you by the throat and never lets go." IndieWire's David Ehrlich similarly praised the direction and singled out Depp's performance before stating that "like all of Eggers' films, of which Nosferatu is the richest and most fully realized, it draws a spellbinding power from the friction it finds between historical social mores and the eternal human thirsts they exist to keep in check."

Filmmaker David Lowery named it one of his favorite films of 2024, saying "Robert has made a vampire film steeped in woe, but I can only imagine how utterly overjoyed he was to be making it. Who knows if he was actually laughing behind the camera, but it's pretty hard not to hear him all the same ­— and this joy, imagined or not, is vicarious." Filmmaker Sean Baker similarly praised the film writing "It's going to be very hard to beat Nosferatu for my fav film of the year. Must see on the big screen. Eggers's direction is masterful and Lily-Rose Depp and Nicholas Hoult deserve best actor noms. Glorious cinematography, score, production design and editing. My God this is an incredible film." Other filmmakers, including Maggie Betts, Savanah Leaf, JT Mollner, Daniel Scheinert, Juel Taylor and Malcolm Washington also praised the film.
