There was a whole lot of real rodent action on the set of Nosferatu

Willem Dafoe’s “Crazy Vampire Hunter” look for Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu is released with a wild story behind it.

Robert Eggers has set his sights back on his Nosferatu remake, and he’s found stellar replacements for Harry Styles and Anya Taylor-Joy.

The upcoming Nosferatu remake from director Robert Eggers has just added Bill Skarsgard and Lily-Rose Depp.

Director Robert Eggers on why The Northman is his most mainstream film yet (even though it still packs enough offbeat punch for his fans), the film's connections to Hamlet, his deep research into Viking culture, and more.

With writer-director Scott Frank’s The Queen’s Gambit now streaming on Netflix, I recently got to speak with Anya Taylor-Joy about making the fantastic limited series. If you haven’t seen the trailers, The Queen’s Gambit is based on the novel by Watler Tevis and follows Beth Harmon (Taylor-Joy), who was abandoned to a Kentucky orphanage in the late 1950s.

Robert Eggers is a gifted director whose films, The Witch and The Lighthouse, aren't for everyone.

Robert Eggers’ horror film The Lighthouse is one of the best in Cannes (click here for our review).
