Hold a gun to his head and make him portray the Greek Gods as real in the movie and not all in their imagination.

Seriously. His Valkyrie and the draugr from The Northman were amazing, which leads me to believe he would bring Scylla and the Cyclops and the rest of the monsters and creatures to life on screen.

The berserker dance was so primal and otherworldly. I would love to have seen him do something similar with Bronze Age warriors and their rituals and battle cries.

As far as I'm concerned, Eggers does the best period movies ever. When he dares to do embrace the supernatural.

My God his Athena would have been amazing based on his Valkyrie.

Just like you often see studios compete by making similar films, I wish Eggers would make a competing The Odyssey movie with a rival studio.

Please. Someone pass this on to Eggers.

Tell him his period stuff craps all over Nolan's.

I am really happa for Obsession's success but a little bit mubbed because trauler is not attached beacuse it would definetly reach to a lot of audience!

I’m super excited for Werwulf, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed all of Egger’s works in the past, and can’t wait for the movie to come out. However, I’m not gonna watch the trailer, and am kind of stressed about how exactly I’m going to go about avoiding it.

See, my philosophy is I’ve already decided I’m going to see the movie, so I don’t really know why I’d watch the trailer. I rather like going in blind, because I feel like trailers can skew expectations, and will only ever watch trailers if I don’t know if I’m going to see the movie yet or not or if I already have low expectations. I did this with Nosferatu, Challengers, Bugonia, Superman, Marty Supreme, and felt I got a really genuine experience out of those because I wasn’t really sure what to expect.

How do you guys feel about this method? And also, what do you guys enjoy about trailers? I thought I’d spark this discussion considering there’s a lot of hype around Werwulf and the upcoming trailer.

Obsession is now in theaters and we know there have been rumors that the trailer would be one of the main previews today since they are both being produced by Focus Features. The official Werwulf Instagram account has been created and nothing has been posted on there either, nor anything on YouTube. Just curious if anyone has gone to see the movie and if the trailer was attached.

I'm planning an illustration of Orlok making his deal with the devil, I want it historical and accurate to what such a scene may have looked like in that period's artistic vision

So if there are any clues about when he was a human, what was his ethnicity and where he may have made the deal, lets discuss it

I was watching an interview with Robert Eggers and sound artist Damian Volpe about the sound design of “Nosferatu” (Director Robert Eggers and the Bloodcurdling Sound of Nosferatu | #DolbyCreator Talks; I’ll leave the link on the comments) and Eggers talks about them preparing the director’s cut of the film.

Does anyone know anything about what’s the director’s cut? We have the “theatrical cut” and the “extensive cut”, but this is the first time I’m hearing about a director’s cut.

He's said he didn't want the Northman to be like generic fantasy like Game of Thrones. But if he was ok making the witches and the devil real in The Witch. Why would making the zombie king and the Vallyrie real be an issue?

He did those scenes so well he should've just made a Beowulf movie.

I dont know if it was shared here earlier!

Do you think its possibile that the teaser trailer would drop next week attached to Obsession which Is another Focus features movie? Or It'll be released in June attached to Disclosure Day?
