Robert Eggers has confirmed that “Nosferatu” will be released on 4K Blu-Ray in an extended cut. Is it the near 3-hour version that was test screened earlier in the year? Quite possibly.
In 2023, I read the script and after having seen the released cut, all I can say is that Eggers left a lot of footage out of version we saw in theaters.
“Nosferatu,” which cost $50M to produce, had an impressive $40M opening over the holidays. It’ll be interesting to see what path Eggers takes next in his career; will it be “Labyrinth”? I sure hope not. I’m dying to see “The Knight” come to fruition, which is a movie that he’s been trying to make now for nearly 10 years.
Bassim Tariq was the first one in the chair. The "Mogul Mowgli" director spent two years building out the Mahershala Ali vehicle before exiting in 2022, and he's now letting the air out on this one.
