Focus Features is hoping Nosferatu will take a bite out of the 2024 Christmas Day box office. The studio has confirmed the horror film will open in theaters on December 25, 2024 for all those who prefer their winter holiday to be accompanied by something a little dark and fangy.
The cast of Nosferatu includes Bill Skarsgård as Count Orlok, Nicholas Hoult as Thomas Hutter, Lily-Rose Depp as Ellen Hutter, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Friedrich Harding. Emma Corrin plays Anna Harding, Ralph Ineson is Dr. Wilhelm Sievers, Simon McBurney is Knock, and Willem Dafoe is Professor Albin Eberhart Von Franz.
The Northman‘s Robert Eggers wrote the screenplay, directs, and serves as a producer. Additional producers include Chris Columbus, Eleanor Columbus, Jeff Robinov, and John Graham.
