'Nosferatu' Now Covers Half of Robert Eggers' Career Box Office

Director Robert Eggers broke out a decade ago, and in his short career, has delivered a string of technically brilliant, thematically challenging, and meticulously crafted genre films. Thanks to his latest, the Gothic horror hit Nosferatu, his career box office haul has passed an important milestone domestically. Nosferatu, a remake of F.W. Murnau's classic German Expressionist film from a century ago, has generated over $80 million domestically and nearly $140 million worldwide since its release during the crowded Christmas window. The movie provided much-needed counter-programming in a marketplace dominated by family-friendly releases such as Moana 2, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, and Wicked.
