As a film enthusiast with decades of movie-watching under my belt, I must say that the tale of the prosthetic penis prop from Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu is undoubtedly one of the most peculiar and entertaining anecdotes to emerge from the world of cinema this year. Nicholas Hoult‘s account of Count Orlok’s prosthetic appendage, framed and proudly displayed at home, adds a touch of levity to the anticipation surrounding what promises to be one of the year’s best horror movies.
During the build-up to the highly anticipated horror movie “Nosferatu” by director Robert Eggers, an unexpectedly humorous tale has emerged in the media. In a playful gesture between them, Eggers gifted one of the film’s actors, , a rather adult-themed wrap present after finishing “Nosferatu”. The prop was a prosthetic penis, reminiscent of a conversation that occurred on set between the two. According to Hoult, this was Eggers’ way of paying tribute to their past discussion.
In a recent installment of Elle’s “Ask Me Anything” series on YouTube, Hoult had a chat with co-star Lily-Rose Depp. Among other things, they discussed a special item taken from the set, and Hoult revealed that he has kept Count Orlok’s prosthetic penis framed at home as a memorable keepsake from the production. He elaborated on this unusual memento by explaining its origins as an unconventional gift.
In one of the scenes, Bill Skarsgård was drinking my blood, and Robert Eggers inquired, ‘What did you think of that?’ To which I replied, ‘I could feel his prosthetic genitalia against my leg.’
With a chuckle, Hoult reminisces about the arrival of his unique gift at home, in a damaged frame. Consequently, he needed to bring it to his local picture framer for repairs. Upon collecting his now-framed prop (a prosthetic), Hoult playfully admits that he was asked some curious questions regarding its nature. Unlike other stars and filmmakers who often keep props from their projects, a framed prosthetic isn’t typically a common choice as a keepsake.
One of the Year’s Last Great Films
Among the many movies eagerly awaited this winter, “Nosferatu” is one of them. Critics’ reviews hint that it won’t let down its audience. On Christmas day at the box office, this horror masterpiece will be released alongside several other films such as “Babygirl,” starring Nicole Kidman, music biopics like “A Complete Unknown” and “Better Man,” and a true-story based boxing film titled “The Fire Inside.
In his critique for MovieWeb, George Edelman commended the unexpected elements, meticulous direction by Eggers, and the strong acting from the ensemble cast in the movie “Nosferatu”. Taking on a renowned piece like “Nosferatu” isn’t an easy task, but it seems that Eggers and his team have pleased both devotees of the original and horror enthusiasts alike. With a nearly perfect 95% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, “Nosferatu” has had a great start. The final score is predicted to be in the high 80s or low 90s, which remains highly commendable. Fans won’t have to wait much longer to form their own opinions as “Nosferatu” hits theaters within a few days.
