Get ready for a chilling, period horror ride with Robert Eggers' upcoming movie, Werwulf. Set to hit screens on December 25, 2026, the film promises an unprecedented werewolf experience, devoid of typical clichés and boasting an all-star cast including Aaron Taylor-Johnson as a tormented farmer turned ravenous beast, Lily-Rose Depp as his resilient wife, and Willem Dafoe as the relentless hunter on their trail. Shot on 35mm film with a unique orthochromatic treatment, Werwulf delves deep into Dark Ages werewolf lore from both England and continental Europe, and even touches upon Viking culture's ancient wolf-man mythos. The characters speak in Middle English, tempered by a dialect coach to make it more accessible, while Taylor-Johnson's transformative performance will leave you breathless as he studies real wolves and masterfully contorts his body under the guidance of movement coach Marie Gabriel-Rotie. So buckle up for a visceral, heart-wrenching journey into a brutal, unforgiving medieval world that'll make Lon Cheney Jr.'s The Wolf Man and An American Werewolf in London seem like child's play!
