## Summary

Robert Eggers’ werewolf film Werwulf has released a new trailer, offering the clearest look yet at the highly anticipated film ahead of its theatrical release on 25 December. Focus Features has also launched an alternate reality game designed to deepen the mystery surrounding the film while its story and characters remain largely secret.

The film stars Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Willem Dafoe and Lily-Rose Depp, who previously worked with Eggers on Nosferatu. Eggers co-wrote Werwulf with Sjón, his collaborator on The Northman, and describes it as a story of “devotion, damnation and the devil within”; the game asks fans to find and decipher clues appearing during three full moons from September to November, with successful participants promised an undisclosed prize.
