Bill Skarsgård's initial reaction to his Nosferatu costume: "What the fuck?"

Bill Skarsgård's initial reaction to his Nosferatu costume: "What the fuck?"

Bill Skarsgård is no stranger to a transformative prosthetic (his It five-head will go down in history), but the actor’s Nosferatu regalia altered his features even “more so than Pennywise,” as he recently told Entertainment Weekly. In a new interview with Deadline, both Skarsgård and Nosferatu director Robert Eggers elaborated on the actor’s first reaction to the vampiric visage that he would don for the film, one which apparently wasn’t super positive. Focus Features has so far done a tremendous job of keeping Nosferatu’s design hidden, which means that audiences will have to wait until the film premieres on December 25 to experience the full impact of Skarsgård’s initial revulsion for themselves.
