Everyone knows it takes a full moon to make a person change into a werewolf. What they may not know is that the same goes for new marketing on Robert Eggers\u2019 new film<\/a>, Werwulf. The first trailer dropped<\/a> on June 29. A new poster dropped on July 29<\/a>. The first merch was released on August 28. And today, which is September 26, there\u2019s another trailer. What do all those dates have in common? Full moons<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This new trailer for Werwulf gives us a much better feel for what this movie is actually about. Obviously, we know that a man (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) turns into a werewolf and unleashes hell. But here, we meet what appears to be his wife (Lily-Rose Depp), a knight who is out to rid the world of wolves (Willem Dafoe), and all manner of other weird-looking people. Check it out.<\/p>\n

I mean, basically, it\u2019s exactly what you\u2019re expecting, right? A super realistic period take on a werewolf movie, with just a ton of horrific stuff happening at every single second. You know. A Robert Eggers movie.<\/p>\n

But we also see that there\u2019s a family here and certainly a lot of hate toward wolves in general. And that haunting last line of the trailer makes it pretty clear that however Taylor-Johnson\u2019s character became a werewolf, he\u2019s doing it to save his soul. We\u2019re excited to see not just all the crazy werewolf stuff, but where Eggers decides he wants the audience to go. Do we love this guy? Do we hate him? A little bit of both? We\u2019ll see.<\/p>\n

Werwulf opens on December 25 and, before that, there are full moons on October 26, November 24, and December 23. Mark those on your calendars, Eggers fans. There\u2019s certainly more on the way.<\/p>\n
