Director Robert Eggers is getting back into the period horror genre with “Wewulf,” his latest movie after his hit 2024 creature feature “Nosferatu.” A first look at the 13th-century werewolf tale was shown during Universal’s presentation at CinemaCon, the annual convention for movie theater owners that’s underway in Las Vegas. “Werwulf” hits theaters on Dec. 25, exactly two years after “Nosferatu.” Eggers penned the script with his “The Northman” co-writer Sjon.
