It seems Robert Eggers He is not yet ready to leave the obsessed cold of Christmas behind him. After Nosferatu I carved a ghostly and sprinkled corner of the holiday box office, Eggers is immersing himself again in the winter shadows, this time, with Charles Dickens’ A Christmas song.
According to Deadline, Eggers is officially ready to write and direct a new adaptation of the classic history of ghosts for Warner Bros., and is creating the role of Ebenezer Scrooge with an actor in mind … Willem Dafoe.
Although they are not currently on a motorcycle, the experts say that Dafoe is the best choice of Eggers to play the iconic Miser. Given their creative history, it is not difficult to understand why. Dafoe was a fixed appointment in the cinematographic world of Eggers, who appears in Lighthouse, The Northmanand more recently, Nosferatu.
At this point, launching it like an old tormented soul visited by Christmas ghosts seems like a great opportunity, and Defoe would be fantastic in the role!
A Christmas song It is not exactly an unexplored territory, it has been adapted countless times in films, stage and television. But the charm of Eggers for historical details, the cinematography soaked in mood and the supernatural brings this particular version to which it is worth paying attention. A spectral story of regret, redemption and macabre.
Eggers will also produce the film together Chris Columbus AND Eleanor Columbus Under the inaugural travel banner, continuing a tendency of filmmakers who bring their trusted collaborators for the race.
It doesn’t hurt that his last exit, NosferatuIt was both a critical and financial success. The Gothic Vampire film has earned $ 181 million globally (including $ 95 million at national level) and marked four Oscars nominations in technical categories such as cinematography, production design, costumes and makeup and hairstyle.
Eggers is already preparing to shoot Werwulf For focus features by the end of the year. But among werewolves, vampires and now Dickensian spirits, Eggers has sculpted a unique niche like the Lord in charge of the cinema of the old supernatural world and I love him!
