When Aaron Taylor-Johnson showed up at Venice last week looking like a hairy beast I wasn't sure what the fuck he was doing -- I mean we're clearly not getting a Kraven sequel. I'm embarrassed to admit it took this new Esquire interview for me to realize that DUHHH he's all bearded up to reunite with his Nosferatu director Robert Eggers on his werewolf movie! According to him he's already started working on Werwulf, although the official beginning of filming is TODAY -- here's what else ATJ's got to say on the project (don't get too excited, it's fairly insubstantial PR speak stuff he's saying):
"Other than being a phenomenal filmmaker and a strong visionary for these genre movies, I really loved being in his presence. He’s a strong filmmaker, he knows exactly what he wants, and he's very much in control. I like being an actor that is under the influence of a strong director. There are just limitations and boundaries within that, and it allows you to then differentiate between the other things you do, because he's so strong and bold in his style. I felt very honoured and privileged that he asked me to do something else with him. And Willem Dafoe also, and Lily Rose Depp. The company he keeps is just extraordinarily talented people. Same heads of department, same costume. And Jaren, our cinematographer who did Nosferatu and every other movie he's done. I mean, he's got a very strong, distinctive voice. As an actor, you just feel very lucky and privileged to be a part of it, really."
