Harry Styles exits Robert Eggers' Nosferatu remake starring Anya Taylor-Joy due to scheduling issues

Harry Styles has reportedly dropped out of the Nosferatu remake due to scheduling conflicts. The Grammy-winning artist was supposed to join Anya Taylor-Joy in Robert Eggers’ remake of the classic vampire movie.

Harry Styles exits Robert Eggers' Nosferatu remake starring Anya Taylor-Joy due to scheduling issues

As Variety notes, The Witch director Robert Eggers was planning to reunite with The Witch breakout star Anya Taylor-Joy for his rendition of Nosferatu in 2017. She also stars in Eggers’ upcoming Viking epic The Northman set to bowin theaters April 22, but the production got delayed due to Covid-19 in 2020 which is part of the reason the director’s Nosferatu plans have remained open-ended. Eggers confirmed earlier this year that he’s still in discussions with Taylor-Joy to do the movie.

The silent, black-and-white original Nosferatu from German filmmaker F. W. Murnau, has been remade before. In 1979 Werner Herzog’s Nosferatu the Vampyre was released starring Herzog’s frequent collaborator Klaus Kinski alongside Bruno Ganz and Isabelle Adjani. Eggers has long cited Murnau’s Nosferatu as one of his all-time favorite movies. “It was an indie horror in its day, a bit rough around the edges yet it’s one of the greatest and most haunting films ever made,” the director once told Shudder.

“The newly restored color tinted versions are really impressive, but I still prefer the poor black and white versions made from scraps of 16mm prints. Those grimy versions have an uncanny mystery to them and helped build the myth of Max Shreck being a real vampire.” However, it’s still unclear if the project is moving forward.

Meanwhile, Harry Styles had previously appeared in Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk, Chloe Zhao’s Eternals, Olivia Wilde’s Don’t Worry Darling with Florence Pughand Michael Grandage’s upcoming My Policeman opposite The Crown breakout star Emma Corrin. Had he not pulled out of the movie, Nosferatu would’ve added to his growing filmography. Before My Policeman arrives, the Watermelon Sugar singer recently confirmed that he will release his third solo album ‘Harry's House’ on May 20th.

Saqib Saleem, who is giving finishing touches to his performance in what is undoubtedly 2020's most anticipated film - '83,  is absolutely excited to play Mohinder Amarnath in the upcoming Ranveer Singh starrer. But the reason is not just limited to him being part of this iconic project but for what it means to him personally. Talking about wanting to be a cricketer growing up, Saqib says, "Doing '83 was almost like an act of fate. I grew up playing cricket wanting to go pro. I played State level U-19 but that was that. When I decided to become an actor, I knew that life was going to take a whole new path. When I heard about Kabir sir casting for 83, I chased him to ensure I was able to atleast audition."

Nora Fatehi turns up the heat with Marjaavaan's new song Ek Toh Kum Zindagani! Nora Fatehi's sizzling dance moves in chartbusters including 'Dilbar' ( Satyameva Jayate ) and 'Saki Saki' ( Batla House ) among others has made her a household name in a short span of time. The gorgeous actress, who wants to create a niche for herself as a talented actress, has been focusing more on performance-oriented roles, like last seen in Batla House starring John Abraham. Interestingly, one of the major reasons why Nora agreed to do the song 'Ek Toh Kum Zindagani' in Marjaavaan without charging any money is because she feels obliged to filmmaker Nikkhil Advani and producer Bhushan Kumar who offered her the song 'Dilbar' in Satyameva Jayate, considered to be a turning point in her career. Nora has always been grateful and humbled by the opportunity Nikkhil Advani and Bhushan Kumar have given her with both 'Dilbar' and 'Saki Saki' and s...
