Werwulf Cast: 2 Nosferatu Actors Reunite in New Robert Eggers Movie
According to a new report from Nexus Point News, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Lily-Rose Depp will reunite with Eggers in the upcoming movie about werewolves. Taylor-Johnson and Depp just recently worked with Eggers on his last film, 2024's Nosferatu.
Currently, it's unclear exactly what role either will have, or if their casting is fully official. The rest of Werful's cast is also unknown as of now, but Eggers did mention during the Nosferatu press tour that he had asked Willem Dafoe to be in two of his next movies.
Werwulf will begin filming this September in Elstree, England. This means casting for the film is likely already underway, and we might know more information sooner rather than later.
According to a Q&A Eggers took part in at the Lincoln Center, the director himself said that his upcoming Werwulf will be the 'darkest thing' he's ever written. The movie is currently slated to release on December 25, 2026.
Details for the project are mostly unknown as of now, but the project will be set in 13th-century England, and much like Eggers' other projects, will feature dialogue and settings accurate to the period. Original rumors suggested the film would be in black and white, according to THR, but that won't be the case.
Prior to the announcement of Werwulf, rumors suggested that Eggers had been tapped to direct a new Labyrinth movie. Eggers himself has also spoken about wanting to make a medieval movie known right now as The Knight, as well as one day hoping to make a Western film. He's also been rumored to be working on a miniseries about Grigori Rasputin, the Russian mystic and faith healer.

Rock legend Ozzy Osbourne spent final days with family in England home: report
Ozzy Osbourne's final days in England are being shared. The Prince of Darkness died Tuesday, July 22, after battling a number of health issues over the years. He was 76. The Black Sabbath singer was at "peace" before his death, and was "surrounded by family" before he passed, according to People magazine. "[Sharon's] deepest hope was fulfilled, and this is her focus now," a source told the outlet. "Ozzy's final days were spent in England, surrounded by family, music and in the place he called home. He was in peace," the source added. Two weeks before his death, Ozzy reunited with Black Sabbath to perform at a star-studded farewell show in England, an appropriately dark and electric send-off for one of rock's greatest legends. During his final show on July 5 at Villa Park, Osbourne expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support as the band, including Tony Iommi, Terence "Geezer" Butler and Bill Ward, performed together for the first time in 20 years. For the closing set, the legendary rock star was lifted to the stage while sitting on a black throne accompanied by skulls and topped with a black bat. He sang hits like "Crazy Train" and "Mama I'm Coming Home" while remaining seated during the entire set. "You have no idea how I feel," Osbourne told the crowd. "Thank you from the bottom of my heart." An insider told the outlet, "That show meant everything. It brought his career full circle." Ozzy's sisters, Jean Powell and Gillian Hemming, recalled the last time they saw their brother was before his final concert. "He was frail, but it still came as a shock," Powell told The Mirror about her brother's death. She wasn't aware of the "details of his death," but was very "thankful he died in England." She noted that her last conversation with her brother was ahead of his Black Sabbath farewell performance. "I got a text from him as he drove down Lodge Road, where we used to live near the stadium," Powell said. "He said he couldn't believe all the crowds were walking down our old street to watch him perform." Powell added, "It was upsetting because he could not stand up straight, but he was still our John, still cracking the jokes." The 10-hour show was hosted by Jason Momoa and featured performances from Metallica, Guns N' Roses, Jack Black, Steven Tyler and others. At one point during the show, which was livestreamed in the U.K., legendary drummers, including Tool's Danny Carey, Red Hot Chili Peppers' Chad Smith and Blink-182's Travis Barker, battled with their drumsticks while playing a cover of Sabbath's "Symptom of the Universe." After his death, the Osbournes released a statement to Fox News Digital. "It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family's privacy at this time." Osbourne is survived by wife Sharon, daughters Kelly and Aimee and son Jack, in addition to daughter Jessica and sons Elliot and Louis from his first marriage to Thelma Riley.

Ozzy Osbourne's gigantic net worth his 6 kids could inherit in 'complex' case
Ozzy Osbourne was surrounded by his family when the Black Sabbath frontman passed away on 22 July at the age of 76. During his rock 'n' roll life, Ozzy welcomed six children; three with ex-wife Thelma Riley and three with Sharon Osbourne. The star shared Jessica, Louis and Elliot with Thelma, and Jack, Kelly, and Aimee with Sharon. Related content Ozzy Osbourne called a 'trailblazer' in heartbreaking tributes from stars Ozzy Osbourne's health battles before tragic death at 76 – explained Rare photos of Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne's 5 grandchildren As one of the faces of heavy metal, Ozzy amassed a staggering fortune during his life, with much of his income derived from his music career. However, thanks to Ozzfest and his ventures into reality television, he was able to earn money through other sources of income. Discover the fortune that Ozzy will be leaving behind to his nearest and dearest… Ozzy's net worth At the time of his death, Ozzy was believed to be worth £162 million. A lot of the money will have come from his time with Black Sabbath, as well as his successful music career. Back in 1979, when he was fired from Black Sabbath, the star got a payout of £96,000, though he admitted he spent most of this on "coke and booze", believing that he would be heading back "to Birmingham and the dole". The star's wealth was a far cry from his early life. Before becoming famous, he'd worked in construction, plumbing and toolmaking. When he was 17, he was jailed for six weeks for robbing a clothes store after he was unable to pay the fine. Alongside his music career, Ozzy is also the founder of Ozzfest, a music festival that ran on and off between 1996 and 2018. The event celebrated heavy metal and hard rock music and Ozzy would often make appearances at the festival. It's believed that over the years, the festival brought in £73 million, while merchandise sold meant that the star became the first ever metal star to earn over $50 million in merchandise sales alone. Music wasn't Ozzy's only source of income, as the star also became a flourishing reality television star with his show, The Osbournes. The MTV show followed the family and aired between 2002 and 2005; it also helped to launch the reality television careers of his children Kelly and Jack. Alongside this, Ozzy also appeared in adverts for I Can't Believe It's Not Butter and World of Warcraft, while his likeness was used in Guitar Hero World Tour. Who gets the money? Following Ozzy's death, dividing up his fortune could get difficult. Adam Jones, a family legal specialist from HD Claims, explained that the situation could get "complex", stating: "While Sharon is likely to inherit at least 50%, there are six children involved, and any disputes could delay things for months." He added: "Unless Ozzy made clear arrangements in a will or trust, UK and US laws would assume his spouse inherits the bulk, but all children would have a claim. In blended families, this often leads to rows if things aren't watertight." Adam also warned of the possibility of a "full legal challenge" depending on how each of the parties feel about what Ozzy has left them. "If even one of Ozzy's older children feels left out or short-changed, it could trigger a full legal challenge," he said. "This is where you see things get ugly — and public. This isn't just about money, it's about preserving legacy. The best outcome is a clear will, respected by all parties. But if anything's ambiguous? Expect headlines."
