Overview
- An NBC Store page briefly posted and then removed the film’s first image, a snow‑blanketed, moonlit forest, before outlets reported the item was pulled.
- Industry outlets say Focus Features plans to release the first public Werwulf trailer on the full moon, a report that the studio has not publicly confirmed.
- Focus screened an early version of the trailer for industry attendees at CinemaCon in April, according to trade reports, and the public trailer is expected to mirror that cut.
- Werwulf is a 13th‑century period horror co‑written by Robert Eggers and Sjón, shot on 35mm in a 1.37:1 aspect ratio with Old English‑style dialogue and a cast that includes Aaron Taylor‑Johnson, Lily‑Rose Depp, Willem Dafoe, Ralph Ineson, and Bodhi Rae Breathnach.
- The film is scheduled to open in theaters on December 25, 2026, a release that places Eggers’ deliberately secretive, folklore‑driven horror in the holiday release window and raises expectations among fans and awards observers.
