Oh, the awards and Christmas season for next year are already looking up. When you think about Christmas releases, you're going to get films trying to hit a pretty broad audience so they can bring families together for the holiday season. Or there will be the awards season releases of stuff varying levels of weird, off the wall, and not what you expect. See Poor Things coming out on December 22nd this year as an example. So consider us here at Bleeding Cool thrilled that Focus Features has decided that its latest collaboration with filmmaker Robert Eggers is perfect for the holidays. It has set his Nosferatu remake for a December 25, 2024 release date.

The film has been in the works for a long time, and the release calendar is already packed. From Disney, we have Mufasa: The Lion King set to be released on December 20, 2024, along with Sonic the Hedgehog 3. On the exact same day, there will also be another film from Jordan Peele. So, it's already a nice little mix of family fun and niche weirdness. We love to see it. The latest summary of Nosferatu is currently a "gothic tale of obsession between a haunted young woman and the terrifying vampire infatuated with her, causing untold horror in its wake."
