Nosferatu and 4 Other Most Anticipated Movies Coming Out This Winter
Which one are you most looking forward to?
This winter will definitely not leave theaters empty. December will see a new vampire epic from Robert Eggers and a Bob Dylan biopic starring Timothée Chalamet, and February will see the return of Bridget Jones.
1. Babygirl
Release Date: December 25, 2024
Babygirl by Dutch director Halina Reijn is one of the most provocative films of the recent Venice Film Festival. After the screening, the main star Nicole Kidman received the Volpi Cup for Best Actress.
The story revolves around a successful businesswoman, Romy, who begins a secret affair with a young intern, Samuel, who is prone to moral dominance. The film, which also stars Antonio Banderas, was produced by A24, the studio that brought us Midsommar and Hereditary.
2. Nosferatu
Release Date: December 25, 2024
The major Christmas gift of 2024 will be Nosferatu, from horror maker Robert Eggers, director of The Lighthouse and The Witch. Eggers calls Nosferatu a loose remake of Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror by F. W. Murnau.
The film stars Bill Skarsgård, Lily-Rose Depp, Nicholas Hoult, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Emma Corrin and Willem Dafoe.
The events of Nosferatu unfold around a young woman, Ellen, who is being persecuted by the vampire Count Orlok, who is morbidly in love with her. Eggers, unlike Murnau, filmed in color, but the sets and atmosphere of the film will still correspond to the romanticism of the 19th century.
3. Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy
Release Date: February 13, 2025
Amid the new wave of rom-com popularity, Universal Pictures has begun production on the fourth installment of Bridget Jones, based on the 2014 book by Helen Fielding.
The events will take place eight years after the end of the third part: Bridget, a 51-year-old mother and widow, is struggling to come to terms with the death of her husband and is trying to brighten her life with new love interests, of which there will be three: a young man Roxster, a schoolteacher Mr. Wallaker and an ex-boyfriend Daniel.
4. A Complete Unknown
Release Date: December 25, 2024
Logan director James Mangold's musical biopic will tell the story of Bob Dylan's life and work. The plot will focus on the 60s, when Dylan moved from traditional folk music to electronic music and became the voice of a generation.
Timothée Chalamet will star in the film, with Elle Fanning and Edward Norton co-starring.
5. The Monkey
Release Date: February 21, 2025
The new movie from the director of the most talked about horror of 2024, Longlegs, Osgood Perkins, is an adaptation of the 1980 short story of the same name by Stephen King.
The main characters, twin brothers Hal and Bill, accidentally find a wind-up monkey in the attic that once belonged to their father. The toy turns out to be cursed, and the brothers get into big trouble.
James Wan is on the list of producers of the film, the distribution of The Monkey will be handled by Neon, which, let's hope, will come up with another original advertising campaign for the film.
