Production

In January 2025, it was announced that a horror film written and directed by Robert Eggers titled Werwulf was in development, which was co-written by Sjón, who had previously worked with Eggers in The Northman (2022). The film would be set in 13th century England, and would feature Middle English.[1] Eggers went on to say that Werwulf was the darkest script he had ever written.[2]

Chris and Eleanor Columbus figurer again as executive producers of the movie.

In July 2025, Aaron Taylor-Johnson joined the cast as the title character, with Lily-Rose Depp, Willem Dafoe, and Ralph Ineson in talks to join. Working Title Films, along with its producers Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner, would also join the project.[3][4][5]
